Occupy Nukes Day of Action Remembers Hiroshima and Calls for End to Nuclear Power
08-06-2012
Occupy Wall Street Environmental Solidarity Group
Occupy San Francisco
Occupy Santa Fe
(Un)Occupy Albuquerque
Today, Aug. 6, will be a day of solemn remembrance of those who suffered and perished in one of the most horrific and genocidal war crimes ever committed—the dropping of the atomic bomb on the civilian population of Hiroshima in 1945, equal only to the atomic bombing of Nagasaki three days later.
<snip>
We further recognize that nuclear weapons have a bastard twin—nuclear power.
<snip>
Today, people power challenges nuclear power. The Occupy Movement stands in solidarity with those threatened, poisoned and murdered the globe over by the 1%’s nuclear-fueled rule.
<snip>
Occupy Nukes demonstrations will be held at:
• 30 Rockefeller Plaza, New York, New York at 5:30 p.m
• Japanese Consulate at 50 Fremont St., San Francisco at 2 p.m.
• Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, New Mexico, all day.
Groups taking part in Occupy Nukes include: Occupy Wall Street Environmental Solidarity, (Un)Occupy Albuquerque, Occupy Santa Fe, Occupy SF Environmental Justice Working Group, Coalition Against Nukes, No Nukes Action, GreenAction for Health and Environmental Justice, Nuke Free Now!, War Resisters League, Catholic Worker Movement, Shut Down Indian Point Now!, Abolition 2000 NY Metro, Brooklyn for Peace, Pax Christi and Todos Somos Japon.
