OWS Environmental Solidarity Working Group calls for OCCUPY NUKES, a national day of action against the U.S. nuclear weapons arsenal. On August 6th, Hiroshima Day, take action against a part of the war machine–nuclear warheads, which number 10,000–that takes up $7.6 billion of the Obama FY 2012 budget.
The 99% have tools to transform this waste and danger into structures that meet our real needs: true sustainability, (true security,) just food production, jobs, renewable energy, affordable housing, education, and economic justice. We awaken in order to do so on August 6.
Occupy Nukes will take place in New York City, San Francisco, Santa Fe, and Los Alamos, NM, as well as in solidarity with what activists do all over the world at this time to remember the U.S. government’s use of nuclear warfare, to oppose its continued use of nuclear warfare (as with depleted-uranium weaponry), and to radically turn from nuclear technology and dirty power.
To participate in New York City, our direct action will meet across from the (eastern face of the) GE Building (30 Rockefeller Plaza), at the steps that descend into the sunken cafe area. Be there at 5:30pm, August 6. Wear black.
Details for participating in the New Mexico actions and the action in San Francisco can be found here: http://www.occupynewmexico.org/august-6-national-day-of-action-against-the-u-s-nuclear-weapons-arsenal/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=august-6-national-day-of-action-against-the-u-s-nuclear-weapons-arsenal and here: http://nukefreenow.org/.
As Occupy Santa Fe and (un)Occupy Albuquerque join the NukeFreeNow coalition to mark the 67th anniversary of the U.S. military’s horrific atomic bomb attack on Hiroshima, Japan, with large-scale “non-violent direct action and mass civil disobedience” at the Los Alamos, NM nuclear weapons laboratory, Occupy groups across the country are uniting in solidarity to make August 6, 2012 a national #OccupyNukes day of action against the U.S. nuclear weapons arsenal. With support from Occupy Wall Street, Occupy Oakland and Occupy San Francisco, and the OWS Environmental Solidarity working group, anti-nuclear actions are planned on August 4-6, 2012 indozens of cities including New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, NV, Portland, OR, San Francisco, Washington, DC, Oak Ridge, TN, Kansas City, MO, and of course, Santa Fe and Los Alamos in New Mexico, as well as nationwide in Japan. - August 6: Join #OccupyNukes National Day of Action Against U.S. Nuclear Weapons Arsenal! | Occupy New Mexico
