Peace groups have been commemorating the Hiroshima Nagasaki bombing, annually at the Hiroshima memorial at Fairbanks Park in Terre Haute for nearly 20 years. We will once again be doing a traditional ceremony with cranes and readings. In addition we have asked members to consider doing a 24 hour water-only fast. The public part of the fast will be from 1 p.m. in the afternoon until 7 p.m. at the memorial. This is in solidarity with the CodePink et al. fasters in Washington, D.C. We will also be making school bags for Iraqi children.
