Eco Docs Film Screening at NHCC Barelas

This 45-minute documentary centers on the 1979 collapse of a United Nuclear Corporation tailings dam at Church Rock, NM, which released 94 million gallons of radioactive wastewater into the Rio Puerco and through Diné communities that depended on that river for everything. Singer Paul Pino opens the event, and the source listing strongly suggests pairing this with a walk through the Visual Arts Museum next door, which is worth building into your afternoon rather than treating as an afterthought. Reserve your free ticket through the NHCC site ahead of time, since ticketed-even-when-free events at the Bank of America Theatre do sell out.
