OVER THE RAINBOW GALLERY@ THE INSTITUTE FOR LIVING ETHICS - Corner of Broadway & Hudson, NYACK NY 10968.“……..So although the organization and events featured here–the Clamshell Alliance and its brave blockade of the Seabrook Nuke–are now past factors in the anti-nuclear movement, this collection of text and photographs is no mere exercise in nostalgia. The Seabrook action, the organizing and decision-making that preceded and followed, basically energized an opposition that swelled in localities and then legislatures around the country to stop the creation of new nuclear power plants in the United States. That embargo is now under challenge. And it is the spirit of the Clamshell that must be reawakened if we are to resist the intent of the industry….” Lionel Delevingne, Nyack May 2008 To the Village Square…we must carry the facts of atomic energy, from there must come America’s voice.
