June 23, 2017 @ 7:00 pm
Fri June 23, 7 pm, at University Temple United Methodist Church, Basement Fireplace Room, 1415 NE 43rd St, Seattle; “Thirty Seconds to Midnight: The Final Wakeup Call” a film by Regis Tremblay. Regis Tremblay will be present for the screening and Q&A. Filmmaker Regis Tremblay states what few others dare to say. Humanity is on the brink of extinction! Nuclear power is not safe. 48 of America’s nuclear power plants are leaking and there is no way to get rid of nuclear waste. President Trump’s reckless provocations of other nuclear-armed countries, including Russia, China and North Korea, risk a nuclear holocaust that would end civilization as we know it. Climate change and global warming, if not mitigated immediately, will end the human experiment on earth sooner rather than later. A shocking documentary that traces the origins of U.S. genocides, military interventions and wars from the 15th century when the white, colonial explorers first came to the Americas to the very present. American Exceptionalism, Manifest Destiny, and the right to claim the earth and its resources as their own are the beliefs that are the foundation of U.S. foreign policy in the 21st Century that has humanity on the brink of extinction. 30 Seconds to Midnight is a sobering wake up call! Admission is free and open to the public. Sponsored by Veterans for Peace Greater Seattle Chapter 92, Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action, and Seattle Fellowship of Reconciliation. info http://www.gzcenter.org/event/30-seconds-to-midnight-coming-to-seattle/ or https://www.facebook.com/events/1324048644299064/
