Hinamoeura Cross was seven years old when the last nuclear bomb was tested in French Polynesia
Hina Cross was seven years old when the last of the 193 nuclear bombs was tested in French Polynesia in 1996. But she never learned about it in school.
After being diagnosed leukaemia at the age of 24, Hina began to realise the full extent of the fallout.
Now an Anti-Nuclear Activist and newly appointed Member of Parliament in Tahiti, Hina aims to unveil the country’s true history and give Polynesians the chance to tell their own stories.
This week's episode of Stories From The Pacific is a repeat of the show broadcast on 12th July 2023
