Excellent statement by @SethShelden of @nuclearban on the imperative of #TPNW, reminding the #FirstCommittee delegates of the message of hibakusha. #NobelPeacePrize
Today's article in @BulletinAtomic by @politicalmines and Dr. Kathleen Sullivan traces @nycdivest's work to map NYC's nuclear legacy and to fulfill the promise of the powerful NYC legislation that #NYCAN helped realize: thebulletin.org/premium/2024…

#NoPrideInBombs!
NYCAN stands with IQAN in opposing hate (and the bombs that advance hate), and in supporting the abolition of nuclear weapons (and the #nuclearban treaty that bans nuclear weapons)!
Yesterday we joined the Queer Liberation March in NYC. We stood with @GAGnoguns and thousands of others to demand abolition of the systems of militarization and discrimination that oppress us all. #NoPrideInBombs #DisarmHate #QueerLiberation #Pride2023 📷: @RCroonq + @achesonray

It was a privilege to deliver the keynote address at @Harvard's #HPAIR conference the other week. It was even more exciting to engage w/@hpairtweets students & delegates-I left convinced that heaps of brilliant young leaders are about to join the @nuclearban movement. #nuclearban
NYCAN marched again in the St. Pat's for All🍀 parade yesterday, promoting the nexus of nuclear abolition☮️& diversity🏳️🌈, and asking @NYCSpeakerAdams & @NYCComptroller to work with @nycdivest to implement @NYCCouncil's historic #nuclearban legislation. 📸@SethShelden & @RCroonq

Today we hit the streets of Queens for the St. Pat's for All parade to call for nuclear abolition and urge @NYCCouncil to implement its legislation to divest from nuclear weapons. 🍀🏳️🌈☮️

Sunday’s Atomic Tales conference at NYU was a powerful and cogent exploration of those stories of nuclear harm that so many ignore. And it was so well organized! Congratulations and appreciation to @GardunoSab and @mays_smithwick, and to all those who participated. #nuclearban

My Nuclear Weapons Abolition and Economic and Energy Conversion Act requires the dismantling of nuclear weapons and would take us one step closer to that future.

One example - #TPNW laws and norms has spurred the #divestment of $63 billion from the 25 companies producing nuclear weapons.
Here we expose the 338 investors still backing those companies: icanw.org/63_billion_usd_dro… #DontBankontheBomb #NuclearWeaponsAreBadBusiness

Did you watch that absurd PSA from @nycemergencymgt advising New Yorkers what to do if under nuclear attack? In this podcast from @NuclearHotseat (beginning at the 20:45 min. mark), Dr. Kathleen Sullivan and I speak for @nycdivest about why the PSA is bad, and what must be done.

In case anyone was wondering what would ACTUALLY happen if there was a #NuclearAttack on NYC.
special thanks to @nycdivest!

7/ It’s about time that @NYCMayor Adams and @NYCSpeakerAdams Adams worked with NYCAN @nycdivest to implement the advisory committee mandated under Int. 1621-A, which will further disarmament education and policy and avoid farcical missteps like this.

Congrats #nuclearban treaty on your first banniversary today, 22-1-22.

ALT The Illuminator Collective, New York Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (NYCAN), Peace Action New York, Rise and Resist, and other New York City activists illuminate the iconic South Wall of the Secretariat building, at the United Nations Headquarters. The projections call on all nuclear-armed nations to join the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW). The TPNW became international law one year ago, on January 22, 2021, and today we celebrate its first banniversary. Designs by Ivy Arce; photographs and collage by Seth Shelden.

Today marks an incredible landmark in @nycdivest's 3+-year journey to ensure this legislation's success. We thank CMs @Dromm25s, @kallos, @HelenRosenthal, and the supermajority of CMs who voted yes. And @SpeakerCoJo for seeing it over the line.
NYCAN - New York City ICAN Partners retweeted
the legislation also calls on NYC to divest from companies producing/maintaining nuclear weapons, and establishes a committee responsible for programming and policy related to NYC’s status as a nuclear-weapons-free zone. #nuclearfreenyc #ICANSave NYC
