Thank you @AOC I would not be silenced by @RepClayHiggins so let's talk about #petrochemicals in #Louisiana that are disproportionately killing Black people, shattering climate efforts and suffocating the world in plastic and other toxics. A thread.
#Petrochemicals, which are the toxic oil and gas products used to make plastics and pesticides, are #bigoil's big bet - set to be the main consumer of crude oil by 2050 they will shatter climate efforts like the #ParisAgreement: reuters.com/business/envir…
@RepClayHiggins' Louisiana is home to 150 #petrochemical plants - they are a part of the state’s ongoing legacy of #fossilfuelracism, and are killing Black and low-income residents. theatlantic.com/culture/archiv…
We’re here in St. John the Baptist and St. James parishes for a pollution tour. This is the Denka/Dupont plant that is poisoning the community. People are dying. It’s immoral. #Cancertown #CancerAlley

This Denka/DuPont chemical plant is poisoning the community, and it’s effecting all of the residents, black, white, Latinx. #Cancertown #CancerAlley 
Strong community turnout this morning. Here at what was a plantation that destroyed black lives through slavery, what is now a plant destroying black, white, and brown lives through contamination. #Cancertown #CancerAlley
