1 5 January -Virtual presentation: Korean atomic bomb victims seek justice – and the outlawing of nuclear weapons – through the people’s tribunal

Join us on January 15 at 5 pm PT/8pm ET, the People’s Tribunal Organizing Committee will present on the upcoming 2026 International People’s Tribunal and the responsibility of the U.S.A. for the 1945 atomic bombings and for ensuring redress (apology) to Korean victims. Over 100,000 Koreans were forcibly removed from their homeland by the Japanese during the 1930s and brought to Hiroshima and Nagasaki during the Japanese occupation of Korea. It is not well known that over 70,000 of those Koreans became victims of the world’s first atomic bomb attacks on August 6th and 9th of 1945. Panelists from SPARK and Veterans for Peace will present on the upcoming 2026 International Tribunal, current progress, and its goals.

This virtual presentation is co-hosted by Korea Peace Now Grassroots Network and WILPF Jane Adam’s Branch. RSVP at bit.ly/janpt For more information, please visit: Instagram Post Link
