Stories will span several generations of anti-nuclear and anti-war resisters, from Catholic Worker Theo Kayser to Plowshares activist Elizabeth McAlister…
Issue #200!
by Felice and Jack Cohen-Joppa, coordinators
Two hundred issues of the Nuclear Resister. Newsletters filled with stories of anti-nuclear and anti-war resistance around the world. Keeping track of who’s been arrested, who is in court and who is “Inside & Out” of jails and prisons. Telling the history of this movement through the acts and voices of the resistance. Chronicling hope.
Meeting 200 deadlines has involved a good deal of writing, editing and proofreading. Many hours discussing tactics and typefaces, graphics and nonviolence, column inches, Oxford commas and prisoner support. Countless letters, phone calls and now emails to gather information about actions and find out what happened in court and behind bars. An impressive amount of all-nighters and intensely focused days, and the coffee, chocolate and all manner of support that have helped keep us going.
To all of you who have written articles, sent updates, proofread, helped at a mailing party, been arrested at a peace or anti-nuclear action or supported those who have been, subscribed, donated, written to and provided support for activists in jail – thank you for being part of this accomplishment!
