Study: High levels of radon found in Indigenous community

No Comments on Study: High levels of radon found in Indigenous community

WISCONSIN — High levels of radon were found in an Indigenous Wisconsin community during a University of Wisconsin study.

What You Need To Know

Over 50% of returned tests in a study of tribal member homes showed high levels of radon

Researchers said the highest result was 25 times the recommended exposure level for the radioactive gas

Before the study, researchers estimated that around only 10-20% of homes in that community would have high levels of the substance, since around one in 10 Wisconsin homes have high radon levels

As a part of the study, researchers also had professional radon mitigation completed for the participants who were affected by high radon levels

Over 50% of returned tests from tribal member homes showed high levels of radon, according to the collaborative study between the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center, the Stockbridge-Munsee Health and Wellness Center and the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of the Mohican Nation.

Researchers said the highest result was 25 times the recommended exposure level for the radioactive gas that occurs naturally from the ground.

Before the study, researchers estimated that around only 10-20% of homes in that community would have high levels of the substance, since around one in 10 Wisconsin homes have high radon levels. However, that percentage proved to be higher.

“This community/academic partnership was successful at radon mitigation in Native communities, where potentially harmful radon was found in 55% of tested homes—some of which had dangerously high levels commensurate to the risk of smoking more than a pack of cigarettes per day,” said Fumiko Chino, a radiation oncologist at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, in a press release.

Radon is most prevalent in upper Midwest states and is the second leading cause of lung cancer…

GIRLS SPEAK OUT

On the International Day of the Girl, United Nations officials, advocates, and young leaders gathered at a town hall event at UN Headquarters today (11 Oct), co-organized by the Permanent Missions of Canada, Peru, and Türkiye, the NGO Working Group on Girls, UNICEF, UN-Women, and UNFPA. This year’s theme, “Girls’ Vision for the Future,” underscored both the urgency of addressing challenges facing girls and the resilience of their voices calling for change.

“During this time, we would also like to acknowledge that the land administratively designed as New York City, where the headquarters of the United Nations reside, is the homeland of the Lenape tribe,” said Elena, a young participant, highlighting the historical injustices faced by the Indigenous people. Elena added, “we recognize Lenape’s close connection and right to stewardship and the Lenape girls who continue to fight for their rights and the rights of their land.”

The Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations, Amina Mohammed, emphasized the importance of girls’ leadership in driving societal change. The Deputy Secretary-General said, “on this International Day of the Girl, we come together to amplify girls’ voices and visions, celebrate their accomplishments, and commit to unlocking their potential.” Mohammed added, “women and girls are not waiting for change. They are the change. They are speaking out, stepping out, and shaping the world where they are in control of their destinies.”

Robert Keith Rae, President of the UN Economic and Social Council, urged the girls in attendance to continue advocating for themselves. “I am with you, and I am for you. And the important point to say is you also have to be for yourselves,” Rae remarked. He continued, “you have to take a stand. You have to challenge sexism and hatred and discrimination wherever and however you find it.”

The need for sustained…

VLC Forum 2024: Correct History*

No Comments on VLC Forum 2024: Correct History*

Forgoing the expected stylization—be it the imperative: Correct history!, a call to revise and rewrite it, or the interrogative, Correct history?, questioning whether there might be a singular narrative—the asterisk in the title Correct History* suggests a more conditional and hypothetical approach.

The VLC Forum 2024: Correct History* explores how history and historiography invariably function as acts of correction and revision while examining some of the ideological mechanisms that drive them. Discursive strands consider how historical narratives and ideological formations are created, edited, altered, and contested, including historical revisionism, whitewashing, and rehabilitation by state and other hegemonic political actors. Over three days, the VLC Forum brings together scholars, artists, and curators whose reparative and recuperative artistic strategies point toward ways of redressing historical injustice, restitution of artifacts, memorialization, and negotiating conflict, competing claims, and historical relatedness.

Curated by Eriola Pira with Carin Kuoni, the VLC Forum is presented as part of the center’s 2022–24 Focus Theme Correction* and is accompanied by a new publication with a commissioned photo essay by Hande Sever.

For up-to-date event listings, please visit veralistcenter.org or register for our Monday newsletter here.

Day one: Thursday, October 24
Conversation, Re-visioning Native Histories: 6:30–8:30pm EDT
The New School, Wollman Hall, 65 West 11th Street, Fifth floor, New York City.

In an expansive conversation introduced and moderated by VLC Borderlands Curatorial Fellow Larissa Nez, Cree artist Kent Monkman joins Nathan Young, a member of the Delaware Tribe of Indians, to revisit some of the foundational narratives of the so-called United States of America, centering Indigenous figures, events, and narratives that have been erased or denied as part of the settler-colonial project.

Day two: Friday, October 25
Keynote, Naeem Mohaiemen: Prisoners of Shothik Itihash: 6:30–8pm EDT
The New School, Sheila C. Johnson Design Center/Parsons,…
