Beyond Nuclear Tour of Indiginous Activist, Featuring POISON WIND and hosted by JAMES CROMWELL

On Friday, February 27, Beyond Nuclear will be bringing together a very special group of people at Busboys and Poets in Washington, DC, for a film screening and discussion. The event takes place 5:30pm–7:30pm and is free and open to the public. If you live in the area or are visiting from out of town, please consider joining us!

Hosted by the actor James Cromwell — most recently seen in the Oliver Stone movie W — the evening will begin with a screening of POISON WIND,

The film screening forms part of a series of events on uranium mining, human rights, and indigenous people, hosted over three days by Beyond Nuclear. The Busboys and Poets evening will feature:

James Cromwell (actor); Manny Pino (Acoma Pueblo) and Norman Brown (Navajo), leading Native American activists; Jenny Pond, director, Poison Wind; Mitch (she uses no last name), an Australian aboriginal anti-dumping and uranium mining activist; Issouf Maha or Bilalane Ouguet, Touareg leader from Niger; Dr. Bruno Chareyron, director of the French investigative lab that has conducted radiological testing at nuclear sites in France and around the world; and Nat Wasley, an activist from the Beyond Nuclear Initiative (Australia).

We hope you will join us for this important film, enjoy a delicious meal available from the menu at Busboys, and participate in a thought-provoking discussion about the human rights violations caused the world over by deadly uranium mining.

Busboys and Poets is located at 2021 14th St. NW (at V Street), Washington, DC 20009. Tel: 202-387-7638.
