SUMMARY:Farley Center - The Dine' and Uranium
DESCRIPTION:4/13/24 \nThe Dine’ and Uranium \nThe presenters\, Omie Baldwin and Cathy Middlecamp\, will tell not one but two stories\, as the title suggests. But these quickly converge\, because uranium ore was found on the land of the Dine’ in the Four Corners Area of the United States. Omie Baldwin will speak about the Navajo People’s cultural history\, where and how they lived\, past and present\, how they needed work\, and the mining facilities nearby in which they found work. Cathy Middlecamp will talk about three reasons why we took uranium out of the ground\, what happened when we did\, and some more general stuff about radioactivity and “radiation.” \nWho are these people and what are the stories of their land? What is uranium and what are the stories of uranium miners in the past? What new chapters in the story are being written today? We promise more questions than answers together with a lively romp through stories of our (slightly) radioactive planet. \nPlease RSVP to programs@farleycenter.org \nThis presentation is co-sponsored with Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR) \nPresenter: Omie Baldwin \nOmie Baldwin is retired as the Student Service emerita in the University Counseling and consultation Service/University Health Services at UW-Madison.
