6:09Now PlayingWorldrenowned political dissident, linguist, author and MITProfessor Noam Chomsky traveled to Japan last week ahead of the threeyear anniversary of the Fukushima crisis. Chomsky, now 85 years old, met with Fukushima survivors, including families who evacuated the area after the meltdown. "[It's] particularly horrifying that this is happening in Japan with its unique, horrendous experiences with the impact of nuclear explosions, which we don't have to discuss," Chomsky says. "And it's particularly horrifying when happening to children but unfortunately, this is what happens all the time."
