Larry Gordy relaxes with his family at their trailer on Navajo Nation Reservation. Hundreds of sick uranium mine workers are currently dying from their exposure in the mines that once supplied the Cold War nuclear arms race even as President Trump has called for a second nuclear arms race to begin.
