PEACE WAVE 2021: Call for the elimination of nuclear weapons
From August 2-9, commemorating the atomic bombings in 1945, the Japan Council against Atomic and Hydrogen Bombs (Gensuikyo), has called for Peace Wave 2021 events to be organized worldwide. If you are organizing an event, please fill out their form. Beyond Nuclear will continue to add announcements of related events at our Nuclear Weapons page, as we learn of them.
On July 16, Beyond Nuclear's Kevin Kamps attended the 40th anniversary celebration of the Hiroshima Nagasaki Peace Committee of the National Capital Area. Coordinator John Steinbach asked Kevin, a recipient of the Committee's Josephine Butler Award, to speak about the significance of July 16 in New Mexico, marking 76 years since "Trinity," and 42 years since Churchrock's uranium tailings spill.
