The River That Harms Movie Review 1987

Examines the radioactive waste spill from the United Nuclear Corporation in 1979. 94 million gallons of uranium-contaminated water spilled into the Rio Puerco in New Mexico after the UNC storage dam broke. While animals died and Navajo Indians became ill, the American media paid little attention.
