Tuesday, April 5

For many people in Australia and the Pacific, nuclear weapons are not a distant, abstract threat, but a lived reality – a persistent source of pain and suffering, of contamination and dislocation. Indigenous communities bear the brunt of this ongoing scourge. Speakers: Abacca Anjain-Maddison (born on Rongelap, an island that will remain uninhabitable for generations due to radioactive contamination caused by nuclear testing conducted in the Pacific); Sue Coleman-Haseldine (a Kokatha-Mula woman born at the Koonibba mission near Maralinga, a site of British nuclear testing). 6pm. Drill Hall, 26 Therry St, City.
