Speaker JOHN COOPER -
Director of the Fellowship of Reconciliation. He has worked, previously, for agencies that help churches engage in advocacy and action to help shape the world into something more just, including Christian Aid and the Joint Public Issues Team.
John will talk about the heritage of Britain’s Nuclear Testing in the Pacific Region (recently covered in BBC One’s “Call the Midwife”). Having explored the health and environmental concerns, he’ll then pose a question. If we believe black lives matter, does that mean recognising the real impact of the nuclear testing when calling for a nuclear free future?
