Quiet Minds Gather to Unite for Peace
On March 11, at 11:11 AM, more than 60 people gathered together in the spirit of sacred activism to honor the seventh anniversary of Fukushima, and to pray and meditate for a safe permanent solution for nuclear waste at San Onofre. The event, called Unite for Peace, featured a brief presentation by Public Watchdogs on the dangers of nuclear waste and emergency planning at San Onofre, and a profoundly moving presentation with gongs and singing bowls.
