“First We Bombed New Mexico”
Uncovers the Untold Tragedy of Trinity Nuclear Test
Join Us for a Free Impact Screening You Can't Miss!
“First We Bombed New Mexico” reveals the harrowing tale of Trinity, the world’s inaugural nuclear bomb test, detonated in the desolate reaches of New Mexico. This poignant documentary exposes a narrative of government betrayal and its devastating fallout, both literal and figurative.
Months before the infamous bombing of Hiroshima, Trinity’s blast unleashed catastrophic levels of radioactive fallout upon unsuspecting communities, predominantly comprising Hispanic and Native American populations. Yet, these individuals were never forewarned, acknowledged, or aided in the aftermath of the nuclear test.
The documentary follows the resilient journey of Tina Cordova, a courageous cancer survivor and advocate who spearheads a movement demanding justice and compensation for the afflicted communities of New Mexico. Despite seventy-eight years passing since Trinity’s detonation, the US government has failed to provide any form of reparation for those suffering from radiation-related illnesses linked to the test.
“First We Bombed New Mexico” is a poignant reminder of the human cost of nuclear experimentation and government negligence. Through Cordova’s unwavering determination, the documentary sheds light on a long-overlooked chapter of American history and demands accountability for the generations of individuals impacted by Trinity’s tragic legacy.
