I grew up on East 30th Street. I've lost everyone in my family because of it. And I'm the oldest living relative on my father's side at the age of 67 due to Dupont-Denka. Wow.

I remember growing up on East 30th Street. And you remember the days we could sleep with our windows open? Well, a lot of mornings we woke up with this awful smell in the house. We didn't know what it was. Oh, it was just a release from DuPont. We didn't know what chemical we were breathing while we were sleeping. It was in the bed sheet. It was in your closet, in the clothes in the closet.

My mom couldn't get it out the house if she aired the house out all day long. We smelled that all day long. We went to school with it on our uniforms.

Cancers.

Yes.

Yes.

The five parish area that's called Cancer Alley, it is now 92% black. Wow. And it's got about 250 petrochemical plants in that one little 80-mile area of that river, the river between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. That's called Cancer Alley.

Well, I don't know. That's going to depend largely on the people here. If we let them have their way, they will kill us all. We will die here. We are now trying to regroup so we can find out exactly how we have to deal with this situation. What is obvious to us is the destruction. The government has now officially abandoned us, has officially thrown us to the wolves. That's what they've done.

We meant nothing then, and we mean nothing now.

I think Trump is doing exactly what Trump said he was going to do. And I don't think we have enough money here for him to care about what's going on with us. He cares about the wealthy people, the people that paid, I mean, the people that were elected to these positions that he put in place. And if there was some way that we can make money off environmental justice for him, he would prioritize it.

They do not care. It's about what they can make money off of. And they can't make money off of this.
