Ross Featured in PBS Documentary on Media Coverage the Atomic Bomb

Felecia Ross

Associate Professor Felecia Ross is featured in an upcoming PBS documentary examining the history and media coverage of the atomic bomb.

The documentary, Bombshell, aired Jan. 6 as part of PBS’s American Experience series. The film explores how the U.S. government downplayed the harmful effects of radiation following the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, as well as how much of the mainstream media echoed the government’s narrative during wartime. Ross appears in the documentary to discuss how the Black press responded differently to the bombings.
