In the Atomic Field: The Reach of Hanford Panel

April 18, 2023 @ 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM

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) .
