Marshall Islands: A Fourth of the Nation in Arkansas
Manage episode 363413164 series 2515072
This week, Benetick Kabua Maddison, Executive Director of Marshallese Educational Initiative, has the microphone.
More than 15,000 Marshallese live in northwest Arkansas — the largest community of Marshallese people outside the Marshall Islands. Benetick Kabua Maddison discusses how the United States’ nuclear testing program in the Pacific resulted in this mass migration and why the Compact of Free Association (COFA), the agreement between the US and Marshall Islands designed in part to mitigate damages from nuclear testing, must be re-negotiated so the Marshallese people can receive justice and the resources they were promised.
