“Experimental Animals” -- a documentary about atomic vets. Goes into more detail than I’ve seen elsewhere about why they and their families never received compensation -- there are both military and corporate interests tied up in not having to spend any money on this or acknowledge it. So they said, there was even one woman in Congress who promised them that any time there was a bill trying to be passed to allow compensation or recognition for atomic vets, she would personally filibuster to make sure it never passed. And so far nothing has. This also goes into the ongoing nature of the injuries people received -- because it often involves genetic damage, all their descendants are affected, sometimes so severely they die quite young. (Note: One version of the r-word is used many times in this video, but always as a medical term, not as an insult.)
