20 NOV. 2024 · Since the beginning, Karen Silkwood marched to the beat of her own drum. She chose chemistry over home economics. Love over university. The list goes on. Far from her humble beginnings, Karen ends up in Oklahoma City, where she answers a want ad for something that fascinates her: nuclear energy. The company was as enamored by Karen as she was about the work, but work isn't the only thing she finds at Kerr-McGee.

13 NOV. 2024 · At an Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers Union meeting in Crescent, Oklahoma, Karen Silkwood clinched documents tight. From the gathering at the Hub Café, she phoned her boyfriend to make sure he’d arrive on time to pick up a union official and a newspaper reporter from the Will Rogers airport in Oklahoma City. When the meeting was over, Karen hopped into her ’73 Honda Civic and sped south down Highway 74 to make another. This meeting was to blow the whistle on her employer, the billion-dollar nuclear industry giant, Kerr-McGee. Karen Silkwood was to join a list of brave and selfless whistleblowers, but she never made it.

18 OCT. 2024 · Karen Silkwood had a purpose. She was headed to a crucial meeting that would blow the whistle on the billion-dollar nuclear corporation she worked for. Instead, she died in a concrete culvert on a dark desolate stretch of highway just outside of Cresent, Oklahoma. To discredit her, authorities and the institution Karen sought to expose called her nothing more than an “emotionally disturbed and a sexually promiscuous drug abuser.” But in her death she became a martyr for feminism, environmentalism, and pro-labor movements.

Seeking justice, Karen went up against a corporate Goliath and paid the ultimate price.
With no known witnesses, what happened to Karen Silkwood on that cold November night? Was it an accident? Was she silenced for knowing too much...or something far more sinister?
