Some people
believe that since the dawn of time, humanities greatest potential
for creativity has always been channeled into its capabilities
for war and destruction. So to, with the understanding of atomic
physics, has come the capability of complete annihilation of
most of the life forms on this earth. This threat has existed
for over fifty years and continues to confront us daily in this
new century. Since the beginning
of the atomic age, the indigenous
peoples of the world have experienced a disproportionate
impact from the nuclear cycle. Many indigenous peoples have
been relocated and they and their land have been contaminated
by the mining of uranium ore, its processing and industrial
manufacturing, the testing of nuclear weapons and finally.
the dumping of nuclear waste. Indigenous and peoples of color
communities have always borne the brunt of the resulting environmental
and physical catastrophe resulting from this genocidal nuclear
colonialism.
We have collected a great set of resources
on this web page to educate you about the history of nuclear
weapons and the peril they continue to place us in. We hope
that you will share this information with others and join
us in taking action – what ever it may be – to
help stop this madness and achieve nuclear abolition now!

We
are demanding that the U.S. government:
• Stop all new and modified nuclear weapons development
• Dismantle all existing nuclear weapons
• Cancel all future sub-critical and full-scale nuclear
weapons tests
• Close down the Nevada Test Site and all nuclear weapons
development laboratories
• Stop the contamination from the nuclear weapons program
• Commit to a thorough clean-up plan for radioactive
and toxic areas |
