DESCRIPTION:Why August 9th?\n\nAugust 9th is the anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombing 
 of Nagasaki, Japan in 1945. The nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki 
 initially killed about 220,000 people, mostly civilians. The lingering 
 effects of heat, blast and radiation from these two bombs continues to kill 
 and harm people today. Sixty-three years after these bombings, with the 
 United States poised to develop new nuclear weapons, the specter of nuclear 
 weapons in the hands of "rogue" states has become the number 1 U.S. excuse 
 for waging war. We invite those who cherish peace and justice to join us in 
 honoring the victims and survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and giving 
 voice to their demand: NEVER AGAIN!\n\nWe will gather at the northwest side 
 of the Lab at 10:30am, and traverse the "nuclear maze", a huge structure 
 created to teach about the inextricable link between nuclear weapons  and 
 nuclear power and the direct impacts of the nuclear fuel cycle on local 
 communities. At 11:02am we will gather for a moment of silence followed my 
 music by Kaylah Marin and our Keynote speaker, Reverend Nobuaki Hanaoka, a 
 survivor of the U.S. atomic bombing of Nagasaki.\n\nWhy at Livermore 
 Lab?\n\nLivermore is home to one of the two Labs responsible for designing 
 and developing every warhead in the U.S. nuclear arsenal. Today, the Lab is 
 working on modifications to existing warheads and plans to create new, 
 so-called "Reliable Replacement Warheads." Livermore is the place to demand 
 that the U.S. lead the world towards nuclear disarmament, not more 
 Hiroshimas and Nagasakis. United for Peace and Justice has declared August 
 Nuclear-Free Future Month, dedicated to education, awareness and activism 
 to stop nuclear madness. \n\nFor more
