72-hour fast for peace, August 6-9

2022 marks the 77th anniversary of the United States twin atomic bombings of Japan in 1945. The bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki killed more than 100,000 people; the current US stockpile alone is enough to destroy the planet five times over.

We can do better in the 21st century; it's time to reduce our stockpiles. Fastforpeace.org is organizing a group fast across the US and world, for those wanting to demonstrate solidarity with efforts to make the world safer for future generations.

It also serves to promote the nuclear deescalation demands of the American Union of voters ahead of the upcoming election. You can read more about the plan to cut the nuclear stockpile in half over five years in this article.
