Another source for the alternative newshounds out there: "The Nuclear
Resister" is a monthly publication of the National No-Nukes Prison Support
Collective. Its purpose is to spread word that wouldn't otherwise get
around about acts of civil disobedience against nuclear weapons and power
and ensuing arrests, trials, jailings and releases. It includes
philosophical articles on the tradition of Gandhian nonviolence in the
nuclear era, requests for letters of support for people in jail or facing
trial, and announcements of upcoming actions. Were you aware that there are
plans afoot for over two dozen CD** actions in the U.S. and Canada on the
upcoming 40th anniversaries of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings (Aug. 6th
and 9th)? Or have you heard of the Catholic priests facing 18 years in
prison for taking a jackhammer to a Missouri missile silo? This is where
you could have read all about it.
The Nuclear Resister costs $10 for twelve issues (a few stamps will probably
get you a sample copy) and can be ordered from: The Nuclear Resister, P.O.
Box 1503, Ukiah, CA 95482.
