Peace Movement Talk with Alexander Brown at Wollongong Library

Wollongong has a proud history of struggles for peace and a nuclear-free future.

Traces of this commitment are visible in the city's public artworks and peace parks. Wollongong City Council has declared the city a nuclear-free zone, been an active member of Mayors for Peace globally, and endorsed the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) Cities Appeal.

80 years after the bombing of Hiroshima, this talk will explore Wollongong's place in the history of peace, from early struggles against fascism and war, to the anti-nuclear weapons movement, movements against the Iraq war, and the ongoing quest for peace with justice.

Bookings are free but essential via Eventbrite. For more information, contact Wollongong Library.
