Hiroshima’s fading legacy: the race to secure survivors’ memories amid a new era of nuclear brinkmanship Eighty years on from the destruction of the city, registered survivors of the blast - known as hibakusha – have fallen below 100,000

"a small number of hibakusha – survivors of the atomic bombings – [are] still able to recall the horrors they witnessed"

The Central Murder Jesus' crucifixion and nuclear holocaust

Dale Aukerman “The Central Murder” was one inspiration for this poem - in “Bread & Wine” published by @plough.bsky.social and on @sojo.net‬ sojo.net/magazine/mar...
Powerful writing, and where I first found out about Urakami Cathedral #Nagasaki

Read the notes on this poem at https://clarebryden.co.uk/vj-day-2025/ VJ Day 2025 for Caroline and Michael And there was a great light, and their clothes became dazzling white and the appearance of their faces changed. And there was a cloud overshadowing them and they were terrified as they entered it. And they kept silent. - - - Behold the man! A shadow etched into a wall still. Stand to face his hypocentre. See the seared civilian flesh on his right hand and hear the hundreds of thousands of shadows prophesying an unpeopled future. Some have tried to lift their voices but what voices can be lifted when they have been silenced? Little boy and little girl fat man and thin woman— we the billions exist in spooked oblivion. Once a year or perhaps one day a decade our shadows tell us it is time to pay attention to the remnant on his left hand crying out crying for the rule of law and justice and peace! peace! peace! But they too have been silenced. There has been no peace no peace no peace for the shadows who cannot submit to such a hollow victory. Their broken hearts cannot be bound up. They were emptied out way back. Nor will the blinded recover their sight when the forces of evil must be unleashed to combat the forces of evil. And there will be no release for captives released to stumble their way back to an indeterminate existence remarking in their silence that war makes no heroes— heroes know only the shame shadowing them for pity’s sake! Where the bells of Urakami tolled a thousand penitents making their confession will be cindered again and again and again until— Be still. Listen. © Clare Bryden, 27 April 2025

80 years since the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki These horrific bombings are a warning to workers around the world as to where the war policies of the most powerful capitalist governments lead, if they are not stopped.

No more wars to justify budgets.
No more destruction just to clear old inventory.
Weapons shouldn’t have an expiration date on human lives.

If the goal is peace, stop treating war like a supply chain problem.

In the Shadow of the Mushroom Cloud: 75 Years since the Atomic Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki In February 2020, I did a presentation about the 75th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This post is a summary of that presentation. I have not developed into a full art…

Today is the anniversary of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. We must never forget what happened.
