Like most people in her Oklahoma home town, Karen Silkwood worked in a faciIity that produced highly radioactive plutonium. The plant balanced profits against worker safety, and Karen herself participated in this charade of economic survival…untiI the inevitabIe happened to her. Exposed to a lethaI dose of pIutonium poisoning, Karen faced the indifference and denial of her company.
Too spirited to be siIenced, she voiced her protests and became a threat to her company…to an entire industry and the government agencies that monitored it. One day she left to meet with a reporter, intending to bIow the whistIe on the dangerous practices of her plant. But due to a mysterious car crash, she never got there. Was her death accidental, or was she murdered by powers as potentiaIIy lethal as the atom? |
