Written By Jermaine Fowler

In this episode, we reveal the obscured human cost of the Atomic Age, with a specific lens on Hispanic displacement and the lingering shadows of nuclear fallout. Through the enigmatic figure of Oppenheimer and the Manhattan Project, we will probe the intricate dance between scientific progress and the profound ethical toll it exacts on humanity.
