2015 - Nuclear Age Peace Foundation
2014 ANNUAL REPORT NUCLEAR ZERO VOLUME 25 for the human race. not the arms race. NUCLEAR AGE HUMANIZE NOT MODERNIZE A Message from the President In the Nuclear Age, our technological capacity for destruction has outpaced our spiritual and moral capacity to control these destructive technologies. The Foundation is a voice for those committed to exercising conscience and choosing a decent future for all humanity. There is no way to humanize weapons that are inhumane, immoral and illegal. These weapons must be abolished, not modernized. And yet, all nine nuclear-armed countries are engaged in modernizing their nuclear arsenals. The US is leading the way, planning to spend more than $1 trillion on upgrading its nuclear arsenal over the next three decades. In doing so, it is making the world more dangerous and less secure. The US could lead in humanizing rather than modernizing by reallocating its vast resources to feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, providing safe drinking water, educating the poor, as well as cleaning up the environment, shifting to renewable energy sources and repairing deteriorating infrastructure. Join us in making the shift from modernizing nuclear arsenals to humanizing the planet.

PAGE 1 2014 NUCLEAR AGE PEACE FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT • VOLUME 25 MANY THANKS We deeply appreciate every volunteer and intern who gave his or her time, energy, enthusiasm and talents to help further our mission. We especially recognize the following people who went above and beyond in 2014. Interns Learning to Lead Josie Parkhouse Chuck and Janna Abraham, Third Stone Rick Carter, Richard A. Carter Photography Adrianne Davis Lenka and Christopher Davis How did you get involved with NAPF? Leslee Goodman, Alchemy PR and Development Josie: I started a campus club for nuclear abolition at Perie Longo and the distinguished poets on the Peace Poetry Committee Soka University of America, and we invited David, Rick and Paul to speak. I’ve always admired NAPF’s work and when Hal Maynard, Tacklebox Creative I saw an opportunity for a paid full-time internship on their Lailan McGrath Vickie Patik, Simpatiko Film Works, LLC Anne Schowe Tammy Scully website, I applied straight away and was lucky enough to secure the position. What was the most important thing you learned at NAPF? Bob Nyosui Sedivy Josie: That working for peace requires maintaining hope, which can be a INTERNS FOR PEACE What work are you most proud of from your time at NAPF? Neil Fasching (UCSB) - Capps Center Intern Lucia Gorostiza (UCSB) Christian Hatchett (Westmont) Rose Mertens (UCSB) Josie Parkhouse (Soka University) Monte Richardson (UCSB) Elliot Serbin (Stanford) Grant Stanton (UCSB) Wakana Suzuki (UCSB) Audrey Westerlund (UCSB) challenge in today’s world! Josie: I’m proud of the work I continue to do for NAPF’s Facebook page. It allows me to think of creative ways to communicate NAPF’s message. Social media is critical because it reaches a wide audience – especially youth who can feel so detached from this topic. What have you been up to since your time at NAPF? Josie: I’ve been involved in peace efforts with Soka Gakkai International (SGI) in the UK. I went to the ICAN conference for NGOs in Vienna in October 2014. And at the 2015 NPT Review Conference, I represented Ban All Nukes Generation (BANG) and was chosen to address the UN. (Hear Josie’s speech at youtube. com/watch?v=sG6ZKzmVNIY.) Interns: R Mertens, J Parkhouse, M Richardson, E Serbin PAGE 2 NUCLEAR ZERO • FOR THE HUMAN RACE. NOT THE ARMS RACE. Paul K. Chappell sharing a fun moment with his students. “The most important work in the world! He teaches us how to both understand and strengthen that which already lies within us for change to occur…” —Tilla Durr, Civil Rights Activist, daughter of famed civil rights activists Clifford and Virginia Durr “… the learning evolves into subtle ripple effects that go beyond the classroom.” Peace Leadership: Leading the Way to a Shared Humanity With lectures, trainings, and workshops inspiring a new generation of peace activists, the Peace Leadership Program continues to emphasize our common humanity, providing young leaders with the tools to wage peace. NAPF Peace Leadership Director Paul K. Chappell shares transformative insights on nuclear weapons, war, and how to effect positive social change with global audiences. Chappell’s background as a West Point graduate, Iraq War veteran, and former army captain has shaped his perspective on the need to train the next generation in the art of waging peace, just as soldiers are trained in waging war. Reaching more than 5,000 college students, high school students, veterans, and activists directly in 2014, and countless more through videos, radio interviews, and writings, Paul has also given keynote speeches to regional, national, and international organizations including Veterans for Peace, Pax Christi, Soka Gakkai International, and the Peace and Justice Studies Association. Among those empowered have been war-weary social workers in Uganda, members of indigenous communities in the United States and Canada, inner-city American youth, and a new generation of politically engaged German high school students. We look forward to the continued growth of this program as it guides the hearts and minds of global citizens toward shaping a better future. —Cindy Cordova, Master’s Candidate in Higher Education Leadership, University of San Diego “When I heard Paul speak, I realized why his message could literally feed the masses with that controversial thing called hope.” —Kate Towle, Educational Consultant to Minneapolis Public Schools Nukes are Nuts bracelet Peace In Store Our online store is stocked with lots of NAPF merchandise.

PAGE 3 2014 NUCLEAR AGE PEACE FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT • VOLUME 25 ZERO NUCLEAR L A W S U I T S THE CASE FOR NUCLEAR ZERO Landmark Lawsuits On April 24, 2014, the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) filed landmark lawsuits against the nine nucleararmed nations in the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and against the United States in U.S. Federal Court to hold them accountable for their breaches of Article VI of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and customary international law. The U.S., the U.K., Russia, France, and China are in violation of their treaty obligations by continuing to modernize their nuclear forces and by failing to negotiate in good faith for nuclear disarmament. India, Israel, North Korea, and Pakistan are not parties to the NPT but are still in violation of customary international law. The RMI is a small island nation in the Pacific whose people have suffered greatly at the hands of U.S. nuclear tests in the 1940s and 1950s. Their lawsuits are a bold form of peaceful, non-violent action aimed at changing the status quo on an issue that threatens the security and future of all generations. PAGE 4 Marshall Islands Foreign Minister Tony de Brum said in his statement at the 2014 PrepCom, “The NPT itself is not a light switch to be turned on and off at convenience – States must be held to full accountability for violations of the Treaty or in abusing withdrawal provisions – a matter of concern for every nation, and the wider global community that defines us all.” Dismissed, but not Discouraged: the U.S. Case Moves Forward On February 3, 2015, the U.S. case was dismissed in the U.S. District Court by Judge Jeffrey S. White. Instead of allowing the case to be argued on its merits, the Court dismissed the suit on the jurisdictional grounds of standing and political question doctrine. The RMI filed its Appeal Brief on July 13, 2015. Laurie Ashton, lead attorney for the Marshall Islands in the U.S. case, commented, “This case asks the question whether the President of the United States is above the law – and the law here is Article VI of the NPT, a legally binding treaty. The Marshall NUCLEAR ZERO • FOR THE HUMAN RACE. NOT THE ARMS RACE. Islands, like every NPT party, is entitled to the fulfillment of the United States’ promise to negotiate complete nuclear disarmament. But while the United States has the world focused on nonproliferation measures across the globe, it is in flagrant breach of its obligation to negotiate complete nuclear disarmament.” To read the Appeal Brief in its entirety, visit www.wagingpeace.org/documents/ rmi-appeal.pdf. The lawsuits in the ICJ are continuing to work their way through the court. For more information, visit http:// nuclearzero.org/in-the-courts. A Growing Consortium We continue to build a powerful and diverse consortium of civil society organizations to support the Marshall Islands in their Nuclear Zero Lawsuits. To date, there are over 90 organizations supporting the Nuclear Zero cases, all working around a shared agenda, maximizing efforts through collective action and outreach. These include, among others: Greenpeace, Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Free the Children, World Council of Churches, and Nobel Women’s Initiative. Article VI of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Each of the parties to the treaty undertakes to pursue negotiations in good faith on effective measures relating to cessation of the nuclear arms race at an early date and to nuclear disarmament, and on a treaty on general and completed disarmament under strict and effective international control. For All Humanity Connect with Peace The RMI fights for the future of all humanity. The aim is to engage the political leadership needed to achieve a Nuclear Weapons Convention by 2020. World leaders need to know it’s the will of the people to reach Nuclear Zero. Wagingpeace.org, the Foundation’s main website, is a springboard for new conversations and engagement in our mission. It amplifies our message and provides information on our exciting initiatives and activities in addition to the latest news on nuclear weapons and global peace issues. The Marshall Islands will never give up the struggle for a world free from nuclear weapons. As said by Foreign Minister de Brum, “These weapons are the enemy of all humankind. That is why we will stand up for what we believe in.” For the latest updates on the Nuclear Zero Lawsuits, visit www.nuclearzero.org.

NAPF representatives presented a report to UN SecretaryGeneral Ban Ki-moon on our disarmament education activities, distributed a briefing paper on the Nuclear Zero lawsuits, and collaborated with other NGOs to push for fulfillment of the Treaty’s obligations. Tony de Brum, foreign minister of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, gave a powerful speech emphasizing the suffering inflicted upon his country’s citizens by nuclear weapons, and the urgent need for their complete and total abolition. Our ceremony, set in the contemplative tranquility of the Sadako Peace Garden, paid tribute to the victims of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as well as all innocent victims of war. Keynote speaker Robert Laney, NAPF Board Vice Chair, and Santa Barbara Poet Laureate Emerita, Perie Longo, among many others, delivered messages of peace through both prose and poetry. Over 100 guests joined us to reflect upon the past as inspiration for a peaceful future, free of nuclear weapons. Top row, left to right: ; Sadako Peace Day Cranes; Paul K.

Kelly Lecture on Humanity’s Future This annual Lecture on Humanity’s Future featured worldrenowned linguist and political activist Noam Chomsky. In his first public appearance in Santa Barbara in over 25 years, Chomsky educated and inspired a sold-out audience at the Lobero Theatre with his lecture, “Security and State Policy.” He painted a bleak image of the next century— discussing the threat that nuclear weapons pose not only to state security, but to the survival of the human race— and concluded by urging the audience to unite their voices and redirect the course of world affairs. 31st Annual Evening for Peace The Foundation honored Medea Benjamin, one of the world’s strongest voices for peace and justice, with our Distinguished Peace Leadership Award. Benjamin is the co-founder of the social justice organization CODEPINK and the international human rights organization Global Exchange. A lifelong advocate for peace, she urged us “to build a movement that takes on the arrogance of power, the tyranny of greed, the politics of hypocrisy…the sin of torture, the crisis of the environment, the madness of war, and turn that all into a culture, a country, that shows love, compassion, caring for the planet, and with that, we have to lift the voices of the peacemakers.” Thanks to our sponsors, more than 80 students were able to hear Medea’s speech and be inspired to become the next generation of peace leaders. NAPF at the Humanitarian Impact of Nuclear Weapons Conferences NAPF participated in The Vienna Conference, which was held in December 2014. Survivors of the nuclear bombings in Japan and of nuclear testing in various countries around the world offered their deeply affecting firsthand accounts of the destructive powers of nuclear weapons—testimonies that complemented various scientific, research-based presentations. Pope Francis, in a statement at the Conference, called for nuclear weapons to be “banned once and for all,” and Austria pledged to “fill the legal gap for the prohibition and elimination of nuclear weapons” in a commendable, historic move. NAPF was among the delegates at the Mexico Conference, held in February 2014. Central to this conference was the discussion of the probability of global devastation as a result of nuclear deployment, and the consequent urgent need for the elimination of nuclear weapons. Various UN agencies, think tanks, scholars, and former military officers gave presentations on the potential environmental, medical, social, and economic consequences of a nuclear detonation. The Conference concluded with new momentum toward the start of a diplomatic process surrounding a worldwide nuclear ban. 2014 Swackhamer Disarmament Video Contest Our video contest highlights the power of video to educate and inspire others. This year’s theme was “Nukes Are Nuts.” Our winner was Eddie Mason with his video “We’ve Come Too Far,” where he speaks about all of the world’s people being at risk due to nuclear weapons. See the winning videos at facebook.com/2014videocontest/videos. 2014 Barbara Mandigo Kelly Peace Poetry Contest We recognize the unique role poetry plays in transforming our thinking and shaping a peaceful world. With the world around us going at warp speed, poetry has a way of slowing things down long enough for us to think differently about things that matter. Open to people worldwide, the competition has three categories: Adults, (Youth 13 -18), and Youth (12 and under.) The winning poems can be found at http://www.wagingpeace.org/wp-content/ uploads/2015/05/winners.pdf.

PAGE 13 2014 NUCLEAR AGE PEACE FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT • VOLUME 25 HUMANIZE NOT MODERNIZE The U.S. is on track to spend roughly $35 billion modernizing its nuclear arsenal this year. We believe this money would be far better spent on productive, not destructive purposes. Think of how far that money would go to help alleviate the suffering of the hungry and poor in the U.S. and throughout the world.
