Closing words to Symposium on The Medical and Ecological Consequences of the Fukushima Nuclear Accident. She recounts her experience during the "Second American Revolution" when doctors and citizens organized to pressure political leaders to end nuclear weapons proliferation and the normalization of the belief that nuclear war was "winnable".
