Silkwood

Fired Up

48 min • 19 december 2024
As accidents and safety issues continued to occur at Kerr-McGee’s Cimarron facility in Crescent, Oklahoma, Karen Silkwood grew increasingly intolerant. When a position opened in the local Oil, Chemical, and Atomic Workers Union in the summer of ‘74, Karen, at the urging of others, threw her hat in the ring. She won the position, and in now time found herself in Washington D.C. discussing the plant’s violations at union headquarters and agreeing to secretly collecting information that would prove the allegations against Kerr-McGee. They also went to the Atomic Energy Commission in Bethesda to discuss the issues at hand, something that might have been a grave mistake.
