This dialogue considers Irene Lusztig's 2023 film Richland , a place‐based documentary about a nuclear company town in southeastern Washington State. Built by the US government as part of the Manhattan Project, Richland fueled thousands of weapons in the nation's nuclear arsenal, including the bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan. Lusztig speaks with interdisciplinary scholar Shannon Cram about how this community inhabits the complex and contradictory relations of atomic violence and nuclear pride. So too, they discuss Lusztig's listening‐centered documentary method with a specific focus on what it means to facilitate listening across political and ideological difference
