just won the Nobel Peace Prize for their work abolishing nuclear weapons!

"End Nuclear Madness: Hiroshima/Nagasaki 2024"
Seventy-nine years after US bombs fell on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing
hundreds of thousands of people, people gathered at Portland's waterfront
to remember and say never again. This two-part show captures most of the
event held on August 6, 2024, organized by the Japanese American Museum of
Oregon, Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility, and other groups.
Host Jeff Selby, interim Director of Portland's Office of Equity and Human
Rights, sets a somber tone with a dash of humor. Other presenters include
Veteran for Peace Dan Shea sharing remarks he made in Hiroshima several
years ago, Regna Merritt, PSR's board chair, talking about a project in
1985 in which her mother and thousands of others wrapped the Pentagon with
peace banners, and Hibakusha (atomic bomb survivor) Michiko Kornhauser
telling the story of her childhood and her family and friends.
Performers include Portland Taiko, drumming the event to a start and
closing out, Barbara Stafford Wilson and former Oregon poet laureate Kim
Stafford reading poetry from their family, the Tsubaki Kai Dancers, the
Ikoi-no-kai Singing Group and slam poet Ty.Brack.
The show was recorded, edited and produced by Dan Handelman with some
additional footage from Dan Shea and Samantha Paladini.
