Remembering Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Sunday, August 9, 2026
6:30 Silent Vigil-Watertown Square
7:30 Music and Testimonials at the Dock
8:30 Floating of Candleboats
NEVER AGAIN – NO MORE HIROSHIMA and NAGASAKI!
NO MORE VICTIMS - ABOLISH NUCLEAR WEAPONS!
“Why do we stand in silence and float candle boats”? To remember -
*The more than 210,000 killed, and the many more injured, by the U.S. nuclear
attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9 in 1945.
*That the danger of nuclear war is ever present and growing daily, and that without a powerful grassroots movement dedicated to abolition of nuclear weapons, the unthinkable - another Hiroshima or Nagasaki - is possible.
