MARKING THE ANNIVERSARY OF HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI WITH ORIGAMI DEMONSTRATION AND TWO GUEST SPEAKERS

Solemn Commemoration of U.S. Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, 75 Years Ago

Message from Judith Mohling of the Rocky Mountain Peace and Justice Center in Boulder, CO:

On Thursday, August 6, from 1:00 to 2:30, the Colorado Coalition for the Prevention of Nuclear War cordially invites each person this email reaches to join us for a Zoom call hosted by my friend, Jane Shepard. We will gather together to learn to fold a peace crane, from Kyoko Saegusa, who is the origami teacher who has been with us year after year at the Farmers' Market on the grass; hear short speeches from Bob Kinsey and Marge Taniwaki, sing "Morning Has Broken," a Scottish Gaelic traditional song brought to light by Eleanor Farjeon in 1957, and the beautiful anthem, "Finlandia," especially requested by Donna Spring. We will have the lyrics to the songs to put on the screen and Jane Shepard will accompany us on her guitar. Of course we will also greet each other and chat a bit!

You will need a computer, a phone, paper to make cranes. Jane's invitation to join went to you separately.

With love to each of you at this strange, sad time in our lives,

Judith Mohling
