UN Sec. General & Hiroshima Mayor Urge NO NUKES

UN Sec. General Ban Ki-Moon, Hiroshima Mayor Tadatoshi Akiba, and Socorro Gomes, World Peace Council President, at Int'l Conf. for a Nuclear-Free, Peaceful, Just, and Sustainable World May 1, 2010 at The Riverside Church. The Conference in New York City April 30 and May 1 was aimed at the upcoming Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference at the UN May 3-28, where the US has yet to honor its treaty obligation requiring good faith effort to reduce its arsenal of nuclear weapons . Only the English translation of Gomes' talk in Portuguese is presented, and there's some editing of the other talks for a cablecast requirement of 58 minutes. Tetsu Ktagawa's musical presentation is edited to only a brief "We Shall Overcome" with the audience of 1600 at the conclusion of the conference. Camera, edit: Joe Friendly
