Description

The Mississippi River. HAZMAT labels. Boxing. Suicide by cop. New Orleans Saints football. Chemical explosions. The Angola prison rodeo. Chlorine gas ghost ships. Through these symbols and themes we learn about Toussaint, an African-American man named after the Haitian revolutionary leader Toussaint Louverture, and his formative experiences in the Standard Heights neighborhood of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. While the principal action is set in the Deep South, Petrochemical Nocturne is an indictment of what Toussaint describes as "that dystopian haunted carnival cruise line called America," as Standard Heights and the ExxonMobil refinery which has destroyed it supply the energy and refined petroleum products which enable contemporary consumerism. A discursive exploration of environmental racism, southern history, the prison-industrial complex, police brutality, intergenerational trauma, and climate change, Petrochemical Nocturne is both paean and eulogy for the former enslaved communities of Cancer Alley, the erasure of an entire people from a poisoned landscape.
