I was interviewed by Libbe HaLevy on her podcast, Nuclear Hotseat, at the beginning of the month. The interview focused on my book Nuclear Bodies: The Global Hibakusha.
We talked about a lot of things, including, the medical model of harm from radiation (the Life Span Study) at the Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission in Hiroshima, and how it contributed to obscuring harm from internalized radioactive particles from fallout, about how nuclear weapon states select those who will be irradiated by their testing and production of nuclear weapons, and nuclear waste issues.
The interview was so long, Libbe split it into two halves to be broadcast as episodes #632 & #633. I have trimmed the larger show down to the interview portions. Both halves are here below
