Hi
As mentioned previously, PJW is once again cosponsoring the annual
Hiroshima/Nagasaki memorial organized by Oregon Physicians for Social
Responsibility. The event is taking place on Nagasaki day this year (which
is also 2 years since Michael Brown was killed in Ferguson).
Below is PSR's announcement for the event. As a member of Flying Focus
Video, I also produced a one-minute promotional video using footage of
keynote speaker Dr. Hideko Snider when she spoke at the memorial event in
2011:

Also, we made a B&W version of the promotional poster which you can find
here:

Pass it on!
