Can Nuclear War Be Prevented?
Wed November 15 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm EST
Join the Peace and Common Security working group of Watertown Citizens for Peace, Justice, and the Environment to discuss the state of nuclear weapons, the danger they pose, and the idea that we can guarantee that a limited nuclear exchange can be controlled. Most importantly we will explore what we can do about the unraveling of nuclear weapons treaties and decisions to build new more powerful nukes.
Our very special guest will be Ms. Denise Duffield, the Associate Director of the Physicians for Social Responsibility in Los Angeles and a leader in the Back from the Brink movement. 
Ms. Duffield will discuss the new Treaty for Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, why we should urge our representative in Congress, U.S. Representative Katherine Clark to co-sponsor House Resolution 77, and why we need to build alliances with organizations working for social justice and the environment.
The presentation will take place as part of the Monthly Membership meeting of Watertown Citizens for Peace, Justice and the Environment.
Join at 6:45 PM to chat. Invited co-sponsors include Boston Physician for Social Responsibility, Back from the Brink Boston Hub, and Nuclear Disarmament Working Group of Massachusetts Peace Action.
