On Monday, March 13, at Knox Presbyterian Church in Waterloo, Ont., supporters and staff of Project Ploughshares gathered to mark 40 years of the organization’s continuous work in the pursuit of a more just, peaceful, and secure world. Hiroshima survivor and world-renowned nuclear disarmament activist Setsuko Thurlow shared her astonishing and moving account of living through one of the worst atrocities in human history.
