Diane Wilson -- one of this year's National Women's History Month Honorees, mother of five, fourth generation fisherwoman, Public Enemy No. 1 in Calhoun, <place w:st="on"></place><placetype w:st="on"></placetype>County <placename w:st="on"></placename>Texas . From Wall Street to the front lawn of CEO Warren Anderson multi-million dollar mansion on <place w:st="on"></place>Long Island , all the while chased by Texas Rangers charged with bringing her to justice, Diane pursues a reckless industry with a soft drawl, dogged determination and her own special brand of southern bad-ass fisher woman humor.   When Diane discovered that her home, <city w:st="on"></city>Calhoun County , <state w:st="on"></state>Texas had been named one of the most toxic places in <country-region w:st="on"></country-region><place w:st="on"></place>America , she decided to take action. Taking on the giants of the petro-chemical industry, who were poisoning her community and knowingly devastating the once thriving fishing industry. These companies continue to illegally spill millions of pounds of chemicals into the gulf bays, while their hired-gun PR firms busily under-played the chemical plant explosions and soaring local cancer rates. This was business-as-usual for Dow/Union Carbide, one of the biggest toxic offenders in Calhoun, also responsible for the now famous/infamous 1984 pesticide gas leak at its plant in <place w:st="on"></place><city w:st="on"></city>Bhopal , <country-region w:st="on"></country-region>India , killing 20,000 over the last 20 years.   In the 16 years since she began her fight, Diane has received death threats, and suffered intimidation tactics; shots were fired at her house from a helicopter and her dog was poisoned.   TEXAS GOLD profiles the brave and bold actions that have earned Diane Wilson the title of “unreasonable woman”: waging multiple hunger strikes, starting up a business bottling toxic water taken from a superfund site – which she creatively labeled and sold back the crude brew to the tycoons whose heedless business practices had polluted the water -- sinking her own shrimp boat on top of a toxic discharge site, and being convicted for trespassing after chaining herself to an ethyl oxide tower at her local Union Carbide plant and unfurling a banner emblazoned with “justice for the victims of the Bhopal disaster”.   On the Lamb… On Oct 3 rd 2005, District Attorney of <state w:st="on"></state><place w:st="on"></place>Texas ordered Diane Wilson to begin a jail sentence for criminal trespass of the Dow Plant. She jumped bail, refused to serve time for her “crime” until Warren Anderson, the former CEO of Union Carbide, answers a summons from the Indian government to stand trial as the chief defendant in a culpable homicide case for the <city w:st="on"></city><place w:st="on"></place>Bhopal tragedy. Diane was arrested and is serving time in the Victoria County Texas jail; when she gets out, hold on to your wild feathered hats. The adventures of this “unreasonable woman” have just begun!  Judith Hefland   DVD 23 minutes   Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Category209" TITLE="DVD,VHS, and CD">DVD,VHS, and CD</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product5103 TITLE="A Sense of Wonder">A Sense of Wonder</A> -- A Sense of Wonder: Rachel Carson's love of the nautre world and her fight to defend it <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product5022 TITLE="An American Nurse at War DVD">An American Nurse at War DVD</A> -- The Story of World War I Red Cross Nurse Marion McCune Rice <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4811 TITLE="And Still We Sing CD">And Still We Sing CD</A> -- Listen to the Music of 30 years of Social Change <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4421 TITLE="Dvd:Fine And Long Tradition">Dvd:Fine And Long Tradition</A> -- DVD:FINE AND LONG TRADITION <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product5011 TITLE="Equality Road CD">Equality Road CD</A> -- Equality Road CD <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4826 TITLE="The Best of Margie Adam">The Best of Margie Adam</A> -- The Best of Margie Adam including the anthem for the National Women's Conference <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4586 TITLE="Video:Fine & Long +Words">Video:Fine & Long +Words</A> -- VIDEO:FINE & LONG +WORDS <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4589 TITLE="Video:There's No Such Thing As Wom">Video:There's No Such Thing As Wom</A> -- VIDEO:THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS WOM <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4681 TITLE="DVD:There's No Such Thing As Wom">DVD:There's No Such Thing As Wom</A> -- DVD Version <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nwhp/Product4585 TITLE=":Adelante, Mujeres!
