[pjw] EVENT: "End Nuclear Madness: Remembering Hiroshima/Nagasaki 2024" Tues 8/6 6 PM

[Peace and Justice Works]

Hello again Iraq Affinity Group supporters

The details are finally falling into place for this year's 
Hiroshima/Nagasaki memorial, which we let you know about in the PJW UPDATE 
back in June.

The permit has been secured so it will, as usual, be at the Japanese 
American Historical Plaza at NW Couch and Naito Pkwy.

The Iraq Affinity Group is a cosponsor of this event.

Below is the announcement you can find at the Oregon Physicians for Social 
Responsibility website. It's also linked from our home page and the Iraq 
Affinity Group page. I'm hoping to have a downloadable flyer ready for 
tonight's rally at the Square...

Feel free to share out, hope to see you there!

Hiroshima & Nagasaki Remembrance 2024

    Join OPSR and friends in remembering the victims of Hiroshima and
    Nagasaki.

    If you were wondering why we use sunflower imagery: Sunflowers can take
    up high concentrations of radioactive isotopes and sequester them in
    stems and leaves, so they have been employed to clean up contaminated
    sites following nuclear disasters.
