Thank women for keeping us safe from nuclear disaster
Wendy Yost
Depending on how old you are, you may remember the 1950s and 60s “duck and cover” drills in elementary school and signs leading to the atomic bomb shelters in public buildings. Or you may remember the Cuban Missile Crisis when the world came dangerously close to nuclear war. Then, and now, most of us probably had/have no true idea of the devastation that such a war would bring.
We should thank women for bringing some sanity to the insanity of the Cold War. In 1961, Bella Abzug and Dagmar Wilson founded “Women Strike for Peace.” Their goal was to stop nations from nuclear testing. The movement brought 50,000 women in 60 different cities together in protest.
