Dear friends of justice and peace,
You are invited to northeast Tennessee for a series of events
surrounding radiation, health, peace & justice issues that will occur
here over next 2 weeks. We can offer free housing in Churches of the
Brethren or on farmland -- bring tents and sleeping bags if you
intend to join us for "Camp DU" -- near Aerojet Ordance, a depleted
uranium weapons manufacturer in Jonesborough.
Following is a list of activities that I believe that students and
others working on nuclear issues will find productive to attend.
We hope that you can join us in NE TN for all or part of the next 2
weeks .........................
