THURSDAY: Nuclear Weapons: Are They Legal?
When: Thursday, July 16, 2015, 6:30 pm to
8:30 pm
Where: Framingham Public Library • 49
Lexington Street • Framingham
by Prof. Elaine Scarry, Ph.
Harvard Prof. Elaine Scarry is the author of “Thermonuclear Monarchy”. She argues that the power of one leader to obliterate millions of people with a nuclear weapon deeply violates our constitutional rights, undermines the social contract, and is fundamentally at odds with democracy. After Dr. Scarry’s talk we will offer action steps you can take to move our elected representatives towards nuclear negotiations and nuclear abolition.
