On this West Virginia Morning, In August of 1945, the U.S. dropped atomic bombs on two Japanese cities, killing at least 150,000 people and effectively ending World War II. The bombs were developed by the Manhattan Project that had research sites across the country, including Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
Bombshell is a new film from American Experience that explores how the government manipulated the public about the bomb’s development and deployment. Inside Appalachia’s Mason Adams spoke with author Greg Mitchell, who appears in the film.
Also, a shortage of qualified, certified teachers is an ongoing issue in West Virginia, but a bill in the state Senate hopes to attract new educators. And, Gov. Patrick Morrisey took his hopes for a 10% state income tax cut on the road Thursday.
