Hiroshima 79th Anniversary Commemoration
Manage episode 435694420 series 2362524
It is 79 years since the nuclear and atomic bombs were dropped on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan.
Every year Scottish CND organises events to commemorate this anniversary.
Indypodcasters Fiona and Marlene were invited to record the Glasgow even at the peace tree in the grounds of Kelvingrove Art Gallery. It was a moving, yet uplifting event with songs and wonderful speakers sharing their stories such as the seeds from the "survivor tree", a ginko tree in Hiroshima which sprouted again following the bombing.
We also had an interview with Jacqueline McLaren the Lord Provost of Glasgow about her role in the Mayors for Peace project and her determination to leave a lasting legacy of peace gardens in Glasgow parks.
Contributors are:
00:01:37 Interview with Jacqueline McManus, Lord Provost of Glasgow
00:13:37 Opening remarks by David Peutherer, Chair of Glasgow CND
00:16:00 Lord Provost's address at the event
