Film & Discussion: Fukushima Never Again
Co-Sponsored with Midcoast Peace & Justice Group. Fukushima Never Again
includes interviews with the mothers of Fukushima, nuclear power
experts and trade unionists. The residents and citizens of the area were
forced to buy their own geiger counters and radiation dosimeters in
order to test their communities to find out if they were in danger. When
the government said soil in children’s school grounds was safe and
residents discovered it was contaminated, both the government and TEPCO
(Tokyo Electric Power Company) refused to remove the soil from school
grounds.
Fukushima Never Again tells the story of what
happened in the aftermath of the earthquake and tsunami that led to the
Fukushima nuclear power plant meltdowns in northeast Japan in March of
2011 and provides an alternate narrative to the story-line that “the
Fukushima disaster is over”.
