Photos from August 6 - On the anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombing of Hiroshima, activists in Western PA marched on the Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory in West Mifflin. The march to Bettis was part of three days of education and action to expose U.S. nuclear hypocrisy and confront Bechtel Corporation, the region's largest war profiteer.
