Dear
Friend
--
I just wanted to write a quick thank you for all the
actions, messages of support, retweets, shares, donations, and all the
other small but mighty things our supporters did for the 75th
anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We
noticed a significant change in narrative - with a strong focus on the
humanitarian consequences of nuclear weapons and with the Treaty on
the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons as the solution and way
forward.
But don't just take it from me, we have received
countless of messages from hibakusha, the survivors of the nuclear
bombings, that they were thrilled with the global awareness and
actions that were taken during those days.
They have been so
encouraged to see how many people listened to their stories, read
their messages, and pledged to ensure this never happens to anyone
again.
Here are just a few of the powerful stories that you
shouldn't miss:
The 4 ratifications of
UN Treaty on the Prohibition of the Nuclear Weapons
by Ireland, Nigeria, Nuie, and St Kitts and Nevis on Hiroshima and Nagasaki day
showed exactly what that real leadership looks like!
So I just wanted to say thank you to
everybody who got involved.
None of these results would have been
possible without the incredible work by ICAN campaigners and
supporters all around the world.
We are now taking the momentum from
the 75th anniversary of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and making sure that
we get those last ratifications done to make the Treaty on the
Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons enter into force. Will you
consider making a recurring donation to ICAN to help
support our work?
Thank you,
Beatrice Fihn
Executive
Director
ICAN
-- P.S. Make sure you check in
with ICAN on social media on Monday. We have strong indications that
another country will ratify then 🎉--
