Prescott Peacebuilders will be holding a remembrance of the first, and to date only, use of nuclear weapons against a human population. August 6th marks the 78th anniversary of the bombing of the Japanese city of Hiroshima and three days later the City of Nagasaki. Members of Peacebuilders will portray activist Helen Caldicott, scientist Leo Szilard, singer-songwriter Joan Baez, and others, who have spoken out about the dangers of nuclear weapons.

Prescott Peacebuilders’ mission is to inspire our community to believe in and work toward a more harmonious, livable world. We are committed to building an identity and a culture of nonviolence in Prescott, Arizona, "Everybody’s Hometown." We are inclusive and non-political, and we align ourselves with the core beliefs and practices of the International Campaign of Nonviolence.
