The image and caption address the radioactive toxicity produced by a landfill and the politics of knowledge about its human and environmental impact.The question that the author explores is not how to generate knowledge about toxicity. Nor what kind of knowledge is being produced about it. Rather, the question is: on who has fallen the responsibility to create it? Who has had to bear the burden of such (scientific) work? Living amid stinks and toxic winds, mothers and their children have had to prove the toxicity that is slowly killing them.
