They were broad, diverse, international, and powerful. They did not succeed in preventing the 2003 US\/UK invasion of Iraq, but they set the stage for future movements and future victories, including stopping US bombing campaigns in Syria and escalation in Iran, parts of the Arab Spring uprisings, and more. By the time the Obama administration came into office in 2008, the movement in the US was already facing new challenges. And over the next several years its power, size, breadth, and influence had all diminished. Many blamed it on &#8220;oh the peace movement was just too enthralled with Obama&#8221; and they stopped working. But that claim, while holding a grain of truth among a few sectors of the movement, does not explain the changes. Phyllis will discuss that history, and look forward to today&#8217;s legacy and new anti-war organizations, and the rise of anti-war\/anti-militarism components in a broad range of intersectional organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Host: Sunday Morning at the Marxist Library<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2021\/02\/24\/18840257.php\">Peace and Solidarity Movements, 2008\u20142021 and Beyond : Indybay<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3.

They are struggling to survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite promises that the melted nuclear rods would be removed they have not been and the recent earthquake has added greater dangers.<br>Two reactors at the wrecked Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan have begun leaking cooling water following last weekend&#8217;s 7.3 magnitude earthquake, indicating that the existing damage to TEPCO&#8217;s Unit 1 and 3 reactors has worsened<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government is also planning to dump over a million tons of contaminated water into the Pacific Ocean despite the opposition of the Fisherman\u2019s co-operative and the people of Japan and Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time the Japanese government under former Japanese prime minister Abe and now Suga continue their denialism mode. They say that they have overcome the nuke plant meltdowns and still want to have the Olympics in Japan this summer\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also have shown their sexist attacks on women when the former head of the Olympics Yoshiro who was also a former prime minister said women speak too much. He was forced to<br>resign but their reactionary sexism, denialism and racism continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nuclear clean-up workers including workers from overseas and other workers continue to get contaminated with no proper health and safety education and tens of thousands of bags of radioactive waste continue to remain scattered throughout the prefecture with no place to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s time to remember the families and children who are still suffering from this man-made<br>disaster and let them know that people in the United States and around the world stand with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Host: No Nukes Action<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2021\/02\/19\/18840165.php\">Rally-Speak Out Thursday On Tenth Anniversary of Fukushima NUKE Meltdowns : Indybay<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>8.
