Nuclear Hotseat Hosted By Libbe Halevy

The University of Chicago produced a month-long orgy of pro-nuclear self-congratulations to celebrate the first atomic pile, the chain reaction which started our collective nuclear nightmare. The events culminated in a Symposium, “Nuclear Reaction,” held on December 1, 2017, featuring relentless pro-nuclear propaganda. Nuclear Hotseat was there to cover the events through the eyes of those who know enough to oppose nuclear, along with NEIS-sponsored events presented as a counterbalance.
