Morrisonville, Louisiana

Morrisonville was a small town in Iberville Parish, Louisiana, that was contaminated with industrial pollution from a nearby Dow Chemical Company vinyl chloride factory.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Facts of Environmental Racism )〕 The town's residents - predominantly African American - were relocated in 1990 to Morrisonville Estates in Iberville Parish and Morrisonville Acres in West Baton Rouge Parish by Dow.
==Origins==
The community had been founded during the 1870s by former slaves freed from a plantation near Plaquemine.
A chemical factory producing vinyl chloride was set up on land adjoining the community by the Dow Chemical Company in 1958. Initially there was a green belt separating the factory from the town, but the plant bought land from the town in 1959 and then expanded to cover , filling all the intervening space, so much so that the plant's loudspeaker announcements could be heard inside people's houses.
