Later this month, the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons will enter into force and become international law. We hope that you will join us and our partners at Washington PSR on Thursday, January 21st from 5:00 until 6:00 PM (PST) (PLEASE NOTE UPDATED TIME) for an online celebration to mark the Treaty’s entry into force and explore how it advances nuclear justice. We’ll share a toast (please have a beverage of your choice on hand), hear from a few speakers working for nuclear justice, answer your questions, and connect with each other and celebrate together.
This event is free of charge and open to the public. Our guest speakers will include:
Dr. Vincent Intondi, Director of the Institute for Race, Justice, and Civic Engagement at Montgomery College and author of African Americans Against the Bomb: Nuclear Weapons, Colonialism, and the Black Freedom Movement
Kianna Juda-Angelo, Pacific Islander advocate, founder of Living Islands, and co-founder of COFA Alliance National Network
Stan Shikuma, President of the Japanese American Citizens League (Seattle Chapter)
Dr. Hideko Tamura Snider, hibakusha (atomic bomb survivor), anti-nuclear activist, and One Sunny Day Initiatives founder
