Descrição:
The reactor is now a tomb for thirteen tons of plutonium, the highly radioactive fuel - and deadliest substance known to us - that powers hydrogen bombs. The final step in the decommissioning process was to fill these nuclear reactors entirely with cement, transfixing them into impenetrable blocks.1 SRS, owned by the US Department of Energy (doe), spans over three hundred square miles and is considered to be one of the most toxic sites on Earth. The same can be said for Burke and Screven County, Georgia, which sit directly across the Savannah River from SRS and have historically suffered from the effects of SRS and the nearby Vogtle Nuclear Power Plant, consequences of a trifecta of the American imperial project, social histories of redlining and environmental racism, and the ruthlessness of capital.6 Black nationalist programs in the midtwentieth century already considered the core of the Black Belt South (South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana) as the base territory of the Black nation, often theoretically situated as an internal colony. [...]modernization-via-militarization was the cynical project of the military industry working hand in hand with southern political leaders to take a hardline anticommunist stance, and in doing so exploit Black communities.8 Though the drainage properties of the site's sandy soil and the water quality of the Savannah River played a role in where to locate the plant, its "southern" attributes made it all the more compelling.
