NO NUCLEAR TESTS!

International Day Against Nuclear Tests

Secretary General's Message for 2023

ANTONIO GUTTERES 8ab.jpg

Courtesy, United Nations

Since 1945, more than 2,000 nuclear tests have inflicted terrifying suffering on people, poisoned the air we breathe, and ravaged landscapes around the world.

On the International Day Against Nuclear Tests, the world speaks with one voice to end this destructive legacy.

This year, we face an alarming rise in global mistrust and division. At a time in which nearly 13,000 nuclear weapons are stockpiled around the world — and countries are working to improve their accuracy, reach and destructive power — this is a recipe for annihilation.

A legally binding prohibition on nuclear tests is a fundamental step in our quest for a world free of nuclear weapons. The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty, though not yet in force, remains a powerful testament to humanity’s will to lift the shadow of nuclear annihilation from our world, once and for all.

In the name of all victims of nuclear testing, I call on all countries that have not yet ratified the Treaty to do so immediately, without conditions.

 

Let’s end nuclear testing forever.

The city of Jacksonville, Florida, is reeling from

the "racist killing" of three Black citizens

at a store in a historically Black

neighborhood with weapons

emblazoned with

[Nazi] swastikas.

Is this a "Crime Against Humanity?"

DOLLAR GENERAL SHOOTING 1ab.jpg

YES! A heinous, hate-filled crime indeed!

FLORIDA DOLLAR GENERAL SHOOTING 8.27.2023 1ab.webp

Deepest Condolences for "Loved Ones"

lost when each precious, "life-filled 

Soul" should be vibrantly

flourishing!

Now, instead of the vibrancy of life, deep 

mourning and heartfelt grief because

of 'racial, hate-filled'

lawless gun violence yet not silenced!

More than 60 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

embarked upon his historic, arduous and

non-violent journey known as the 

"Civil Rights Movement" 

to abolish legalized 

racial segregation, 

discrimination, and 

disenfranchisement - all

wrongful injustices "institutionally" 

upheld against the "post-Slavery" 

people of African descent.

 

As "The March on Washington" for

"jobs, freedom and equal rights"

celebrates its 60th Anniversary,

all Citizens should be reminded

that the famous "March" is

yet a work in progress as

THE SPECTRE OF RACIAL HATRED AND

INSTITUTIONALIZED INJUSTICES

CONTINUE TO TAKE CENTER

STAGE THROUGHOUT THE 

GREATEST NATION ON EARTH.

MARCH ON WASHINGTON 30ab.jpg

May the "True Citizenry of The People We" who "dare to care"

boldly cross every color line and man-made barrier which

divide as "The March Continues" upon that "path of

peaceful non-violence" that Dr. King 

demonstrated to the Whole World!

Never forget that . . . "The True Citizenry of We the People"

is in reality "The True Citizenry of Humanity!"

Those who lack legal status, live in poverty, have limited access to education, healthcare, or decent work, face discrimination, violence, or abuse, or come from marginalized communities are often the

primary targets of traffickers.

The security situation in Haiti “is appalling,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres, recalling his recent visit to the fragile nation. He called for swift action at a time when the humanitarian needs are soaring. And although “there is not yet the political solution in sight”, the UN chief expressed hope and optimism.

“It is impossible to look at the crisis without seeing the long shadow of centuries of colonial exploitation, extortion, dictatorship, and other screaming injustices,” he said. “We must help ease the suffering of the Haitian people.”

 

Commending the critical efforts of CARICOM leaders in addressing the situation in Haiti, Mr. Guterres called for increased support from the international community.

He stressed that lasting security requires strengthened democratic institutions, emphasizing the need for drastic improvement in the security situation.

In this vein, he reiterated his call to the Security Council to authorize a "robust international security force" to help Haiti's National Police in combating and dismantling gangs wreaking havoc across the country.
