    04: Wastelanding (Part 02)

    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.  Learn more, make a donation, or find a text-based version of today's program at: timezeropod.com. To support resistance efforts to uranium mining at the Grand Canyon, check out the Indigenous-led activist group Haul No!  And for a wealth of historical documentation of uranium extraction across the Navajo Nation, dive into Shayla Blatchford's Anti-Uranium Mapping Project, which recently won a major award from Creative Capital.

    05: The Lab (Part 01)

    When the Manhattan Project arrived on the Pajarito Plateau in northern New Mexico, the land was not uninhabited. To establish the highly secretive Site Y, the United States military forcibly removed generations of Nuevomexicano ranchers and blocked regional Indigenous groups from accessing sacred sites. Almost immediately, the lab began detonating massive amounts of explosives, scarring the landscape. Military personnel regularly dumped nuclear waste into local canyon systems that ultimately flowed into the Rio Grande. When World War II came to a close, though, the lab did not.  More than eight decades later, an apocalyptic weapons factory—Los Alamos National Laboratory—still looms over the Pueblos and villages north of Santa Fe. Ninety miles south, Sandia National Laboratory and Kirtland Air Force Base store thousands of nuclear warheads beneath the city of Albuquerque. Both laboratories are expanding in scope and scale.  This week, you'll hear from Dr. Alicia Romero, curator at the Albuquerque Museum and part of the steering commitee of the Tularosa Basin Downwinders Consortium; Yvonne Montoya, a Nuevomexicana dancer and choreographer; Dr. Myrriah Gómez, a scholar documenting nuclear colonialism in New Mexico; Joni Arends, co-founder and executive director of Concerned Citizens for Nuclear Safety; Archbishop John C Wester, of the Archiocese of Santa Fe; and members of Veterans for Peace.  Learn more, make a donation, or find a text-based version of today's program at: timezeropod.com.
