Brief Summary
Background: \- The National Cancer Institute has been studying health risks to people in New Mexico at the time of the first nuclear bomb test. This was called the Trinity nuclear test. It took place in 1945. Researchers want to also learn about Native Americans and Hispanics at that time. They want to learn about their way of life and their diets. This will give a more complete picture of the health risks to people in New Mexico in 1945. Objectives:
- To learn about the activities and eating habits of Hispanic and tribal communities during the 1940s.
- To see if a group of Hispanic and Native Americans who were living in New Mexico in 1945 can be gathered. Eligibility: \- Native American or Hispanic adults who were alive in 1945. They must know firsthand about the lifestyle and diet in New Mexico at that time. Design:
- Participants will have 1 visit. They will be interviewed at a place like a library or office. They will answer questions about their lifestyle and diet around 1945. This will take up 60 90 minutes.
- Participants may agree to have their interviews taped. Their names will not be kept with their answers from the interviews.
