In the Atomic Field: The Reach of Hanford Panel
2023-04-18 17:30 - 19:00 | East Auditorium, 2710 University Dr, Richland, WA, 99354, United States
Moderated by anthropologist and author Mark Auslander, this panel brings together science-and technology studies focused anthropologist Pedro de la Torre III, historian and author Robert Franklin, and artist Glenna Cole Allee to discuss the past, present and future of Hanford site.
When dissenting perspectives are acknowledged and entered into the record, historic narratives expand. Familiar frames bend, collapse, or become recognizable as part of the broader context. How does the inclusion of formerly marginalized voices impact discourse about the history and futurity of the Hanford site? Audience participation will be welcomed in a Q&A.
This panel convenes to accompany the exhibition currently on display in the WSU Tri-Cities Art Center, Hanford Reach: In the Atomic Field, an installation that explores the paradoxical histories of Hanford, and reflects the complexities of personal and collective memory. Glenna Cole Allee will sign copies of her recently published monograph (Daylight Books, 2021) .

About the Order
of the Engineer

The Order of the Engineer was initiated in the United States to foster a spirit of pride and responsibility in the engineering profession, to bridge the gap between training and experience, and to present to the public a visible symbol identifying the engineer. The Order is not a membership organization; there are never any meetings to attend or dues to pay. Instead, the Order fosters a unity of purpose and the honoring of one’s pledge lifelong.

The Engineer’s Ring in the United States is a stainless steel ring, worn on the fifth finger of the working hand by engineers who have accepted the Obligation of an Engineer in a Ring Ceremony. Read more.
