Channel: David Swanson
Date: 2022-11-14

This week on Talk World Radio we're talking about how nuclear war is nothing to worry about and if you just go indoors you'll be fine -- NO, we're not! We're talking sensibly about nukes with someone who knows what she's talking about. Our guest, Jackie Cabasso, has been involved in nuclear disarmament, peace, environmental, and social justice advocacy at the local, national, and international levels for more than 40 years. She has served as Executive Director of the Western States Legal Foundation since 1984. In 1995 she was a “founding mother” of the Abolition 2000 Global Network to Eliminate Nuclear Weapons, where she continues to serve on its Coordinating Committee. She also serves as North American coordinator of Mayors for Peace and as a National Co-Convener of United for Peace and Justice. Jackie was the 2008 recipient of the International Peace Bureau's Sean MacBride Peace Award.
