This week, “Oppenheimer” will open, a film that centers on the creation and use of the atomic bomb through the story of J. Robert Oppenheimer.

Go see the movie if it calls to you. But please also take time to learn about the other side of the story and what unfolded at Tsankawi (also known as Los Alamos) and the Pajarito Plateau 80 years ago — the story that centers the Indigenous and land-based peoples who were displaced from our homelands, the poisoning and contamination of sacred lands and waters that continues to this day, and the ongoing devastating impact of nuclear colonization on our lives and livelihoods.

We’ve put together this resource list with a focus on Indigenous and land-based communities, so you can learn more about our side of the story and ways to respond.

You wear guilt Like shackles on your feet Like a halo in reverse I can feel The discomfort in your seat And in your head, it's worse —- And when our worlds they fall apart When the walls come tumbling in Though we may deserve it It will be worth it (Depeche Mode) The neon glow from the 1940s era Tewa Lodge was shining brightly a couple decades ago along Central Avenue. While many of the old Route 66 motels have disappeared over the years, the Pueblo revival styled Tewa still survives along with lots of street activity in the area.
