Growing Nuclear Risks in a Changing World: New Thinking and Movement Building with
Joseph Gerson who serves as AFSCs disarmament coordinator, as director of programs in New England, and as director of the Peace and Economic Security Program. Joseph plays a leading role in building collaborations among U.S., Asian, and European peace and nuclear weapons abolition movements. His program work focuses on challenging and overcoming U.S. global hegemony, including its preparations for and threats to initiate nuclear war and its military domination of the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East. He is also the author of the renowned Empire and the Bomb.
We're now in the post-post Cold War era, an interregnum marked by major geopolitical changes, uncertainty, and an unrestrained nuclear arms race. In the wake of the collapse of the Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treaty (Trump was first to pull the plug,) and the U.S., Russia and China on the brink of a dangerous unrestrained nuclear arms race, Joseph Gerson analyzes the growing nuclear dangers and plans to reverse the arms race and to come back from the brink. Gerson also discusses how leading peace advocates from across the U.S. Russia, Europe and Asia, as well as with leaders of the Movement for Black Lives and U.S. Labor Against the War, are coming together to provide a way for our peace and justice movements to develop new popular movement approaches to help prevent war and to promote justice and democracy.
