À propos de ce contenu audio
In the early hours of July 16, 1945, the US military detonated Trinity, the world's first nuclear weapon, in the Tularosa Basin of southern New Mexico. Locals were not warned beforehand, evacuated after the blast, or given any follow-up information.
On this episode, you'll hear from members of the Tularosa Basin Downwinders Consortium, artists Joanna Keane Lopez and Eric J. Garcia, and anthropologist Joseph Masco. We'll also consider aesthetic represenations of the Trinity detonation in two contemporary media properties: Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" and David Lynch's "Twin Peaks: The Return." And we'll take a deeper look at the Radiaction Exposure Compensation Act—or RECA—and its recent and surprising return to national politics.
