Kathy Railsback is a practicing immigration lawyer and activist in residence at the Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action located on the border of the Kitsap submarine base, the largest stockpile of nuclear weapons in the Western Hemisphere. She talks a little bit about Ground Zero and the campaign for nuclear disarmament.

A retired Navy Captain, he served in various capacities in the US Submarine Force from 1967 to 1998, including command of a nuclear fast attack submarine from 1988 to 1991.

Rachel Hoffman is the granddaughter of nuclear testing survivors from the Marshall Islands. Stories of nuclear testing in the Marshall Islands have been blanketed in secrecy. Rachel wants to unveil the secrecy and plead for nuclear peace in our world. The entire livelihoods of Marshallese have shifted culturally and economically because of the nuclear testing and imperialism in their islands. Marshallese living in the United States do not have a complete set of rights like that of U.S. citizens. Advocacy for the people of the Marshall Islands is needed in all spheres of life. Rachel is providing this advocacy as an Elementary School teacher and spokesperson for Marshallese students and families in Snohomish County. She also serves as a Program Director with Marshallese Association of North Puget Sound which seeks to meet families’ basic needs, to revitalize the Marshallese culture, and to create a network of support so that the people of the Marshall Islands may thrive.

  1. Nukes are extremely dangerous to life on our planet. We need to annihilate nuclear bombs, before they get rid of us.
