Hello again activists for peace
Just wanted to send out a reminder that PJW is once again cosponsoring the 
annual Hiroshima/Nagasaki memorial organized by Oregon Physicians for Social 
Responsibility. As mentioned last week, the event is taking place on Nagasaki 
day-- August 9, which also marks 2 years since Michael Brown was killed in 
Ferguson.

Here again is the one-minute promo featuring keynote speaker and Hiroshima 
survivor Dr. Hideko Snider:
