National Gathering For A Nuclear Free Future
from the newswire
Australia is currently plagued by an expansionist nuclear industry:
including Ranger, Roxby-Downs, Beverley uranium mines and soon- Honeymoon.
A new nuclear reactor is being built along with a dump to take it's waste.
Uranium is poisioning our land and people, fuelling nuclear weapons and
reactors and killing thousands of Iraqi, Afghani, Kosovo civilians in the
form of depleted uranium.
In July, indigenous people affected by the nuclear cycle and anti-nuclear
activists will be coming together for a national gathering. They will be
there to reclaim their land, heritage, health and future! This is a rare
opportunity for everybody to get together: indigenous people affected by
the nuclear cycle and everybody else from around Australia who is
passionate about this issue and wants to see change.
NATIONAL GATHERING FOR A NUCLEAR FREE FUTURE
14th JULY-18nd JULY 2003
Penrose Park, 20km out of Broken Hill in Silverton (where Mad Max was
filmed) near Honeymoon mine.
Uncle Ron, elder of the Adnyamathnya people (Beverly and Honeymoon mines
are on their land) says: "WE NEED MORE GREENIES UP HERE!"
