Bertrand Russell -1957 transcript of address to Pugwash Conference Attendees & link to Anne Eaton’s description of conference - a statement by Bertrand Russell, is transcribed from a tape prepared by him for the first Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs, held in Pugwash, Nova Scotia, July 7-10, 1957. In this message, Russell, whose age and frail health prevented him from undertaking the journey to Pugwash, outlined to the conferees the background of the manifesto, issued by him, Einstein and nine other world-renowned scientists, which had led to the Pugwash meeting. He also sets forth, with the clarity and wit typical of Russell, his hopes and expectations for their work and for what was eventually to become known as the Pugwash Movement.

THE PROPHET FROM PUGWASH -- A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT CYRUS EATON
PUGWASH PRESIDENT AMB. JAYANTHA DHANAPALA PROMOTES THE VISION OF A WORLD FREE OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
THE STRANGEST DREAM BY ERIC BEDNARSKI http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/strangest-dream/ (90 minutes)
The story of Joseph Rotblat, the only nuclear scientist to leave the Manhattan Project, the U.S. government’s secret program to build the first atomic bomb. His was a decision based on moral grounds. The film retraces the history of nuclear weapons, from the first test in New Mexico, to Hiroshima, where we see survivors of the first atomic attack. Branded a traitor and spy, Rotblat went from designing atomic bombs to researching the medical uses of radiation. Together with Bertrand Russell he helped create the modern peace movement, and eventually won the Nobel Peace Prize

PEACE MOVEMENT
DAWN OF THE PEACE MOVEMENT - click to read rest of article In the decade following the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, memories of the catastrophe were still fresh in people’s minds. For two-thirds of this period, Japan was under U.S.-led occupation. As a result of the oppression engendered by the occupation, with its deft decrees, the peace movement in Japan arose, led mainly by labor organizations. It was a time of bitter struggle, hardly the dawn of a peace movement. Still, even in those early days, voices in the A-bombed city of Hiroshima did more than utter wishes and prayers, they spoke out against the atomic bombing. This history, which served as a prologue for the subsequent campaigns against A- and H-bombs, should not be forgotten.

Bertrand Russell -1957 transcript of address to Pugwash Conference Attendees & link to Anne Eaton’s description of conference - a statement by Bertrand Russell, is transcribed from a tape prepared by him for the first Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs, held in Pugwash, Nova Scotia, July 7-10, 1957. In this message, Russell, whose age and frail health prevented him from undertaking the journey to Pugwash, outlined to the conferees the background of the manifesto, issued by him, Einstein and nine other world-renowned scientists, which had led to the Pugwash meeting. He also sets forth, with the clarity and wit typical of Russell, his hopes and expectations for their work and for what was eventually to become known as the Pugwash Movement.

The Peaceable Gypsies by Daniel Lang” December 21, 1963 The New Yorker
Pugwash Conference held in Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia and the gathering of brilliant scientists and scholars "who were temporarily abandoning their formal studies ... to convene as a kind of parliament with portfolio." The delegates focused on "such topics as atom-free zones, the test-ban treaty, problems of detection, the abolition of delivery systems, and -- the most formidable topic of all -- general and complete disarmament."

THE STRANGEST DREAM BY ERIC BEDNARSKI http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/strangest-dream/ (90 minutes)
The story of Joseph Rotblat, the only nuclear scientist to leave the Manhattan Project, the U.S. government’s secret program to build the first atomic bomb. His was a decision based on moral grounds. The film retraces the history of nuclear weapons, from the first test in New Mexico, to Hiroshima, where we see survivors of the first atomic attack. Branded a traitor and spy, Rotblat went from designing atomic bombs to researching the medical uses of radiation. Together with Bertrand Russell he helped create the modern peace movement, and eventually won the Nobel Peace Prize

PEACE MOVEMENT
DAWN OF THE PEACE MOVEMENT - click to read rest of article In the decade following the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, memories of the catastrophe were still fresh in people’s minds. For two-thirds of this period, Japan was under U.S.-led occupation. As a result of the oppression engendered by the occupation, with its deft decrees, the peace movement in Japan arose, led mainly by labor organizations. It was a time of bitter struggle, hardly the dawn of a peace movement. Still, even in those early days, voices in the A-bombed city of Hiroshima did more than utter wishes and prayers, they spoke out against the atomic bombing. This history, which served as a prologue for the subsequent campaigns against A- and H-bombs, should not be forgotten.
