As the United States emerged as a nuclear leader following World War II, Los Alamos, New Mexico, became home to Site Y of the Manhattan Project-home of the atomic bomb. In the process of creating this nuclear technology, human and non-human life was destroyed. The experiences of Native American and Mexican-American communities have been neglected in the history of American nuclear technology. In this study Go?mez seeks to show the local history of these two rural communities in New Mexico and how they were touched by the national discourse on the nuclear industrial complex from the spectrum of environmental racism and American exceptionalism. Go?mez shows how some of these groups have resisted the mistreatment of their land and communities, while others have become complacent and have acquiesced to American nuclear development. The author incorporates the stories of Native American and Mexican American communities into the history of American nuclear technological development"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aMexican Americans$zNew Mexico$xSocial conditions$y20th century 606 $aMexican Americans$zNew Mexico$xSocial conditions$y21st century 606 $aIndians of North America$zNew Mexico$xSocial conditions$y20th century 606 $aIndians of North America$zNew Mexico$xSocial conditions$y21st century 606 $aNuclear industry$xSocial aspects$zNew Mexico 606 $aNuclear industry$xEnvironmental aspects$zNew Mexico 615 0$aMexican Americans$xSocial conditions 615 0$aMexican Americans$xSocial conditions 615 0$aIndians of North America$xSocial conditions 615 0$aIndians of North America$xSocial conditions 615 0$aNuclear industry$xSocial aspects 615 0$aNuclear industry$xEnvironmental aspects 676 $a978.90046807305 700 $aGo?mez$b Myrriah$01658671 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807898603321 996 $aNuclear Nuevo Me?xico$94012845 997 $aUNINA
