This week, we continue our investigation into uranium extraction on Indigenous landscapes across North America, and consider diverse community and artistic strategies for documenting and confronting the ongoing legacies of nuclear colonialism.
It is time to name these monsters.
In Episode 04: Wastelanding (Part 02), you'll hear from interdisciplinary artists Cannupa Hanska Luger (Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara, Lakota, and European); Anna Tsouhlarakis (Navajo, Creek, and Greek); Mallery Quetawki (Zuni Pueblo); Shayla Blatchford (Navajo); and Bonnie Devine (Serpent River First Nation of Northern Ontario, Anishinaabe/Ojibwa). You'll also meet physician and photographer Chip Thomas, who worked on the Navajo Nation for 36 years. And environmental historian Traci Brynne Voyles (Wastelanding, 2015) returns to discuss the obfuscation of mining in the nuclear weapons and fuel chain, the cultural naturalization of the American Southwest as pollutable, and the empowering capacity of counter-mapping.
