3. "11th Hour"
This is a show that spotlights various activists, and what they would say to the world in their last hour.

Some of these are presented live in various cities.

A great program!

Mike is really laying it out.

5. "We are all Hibakusha"
Downwinders... the people who weren't in the direct path of the atomic blast in Japan, but were caught by the waves of radiation.

He's delineating the interconnectedness of us all.

8. Sorry you couldn't see it
Yes, it was very good.

MIke Farrell is quite passionate about the suffering of people.

He kept repeating "We are all Hibakusha". Made me want that as a bumpersticker.

I searched the pbs site to see if I could find the speech in print, but no such luck. I guess they want you to order the video. sigh....
