Hello again, my friends,

I am hungry! I am hungry for world peace, for the elimination of nuclear weapons from the face of the earth!

I have been fasting for four weeks as a personal protest against nuclear weapons. I started May 6, and I will continue through Aug. 9.

Physically I am fine, drinking juice, broth, and such.

But I am feeling much more worried about the direction many of our world leaders want to take us — the modernization and escalation of nuclear weapons.

On the other hand, I am encouraged about the positive energy and increased activity of the growing nuclear weapons abolition movement worldwide.

Naturally, it is up to all of us to stay involved and active in helping to promote peace and to continue supporting efforts to secure a nuclear weapons-free future.

Here are links to a few good groups who are sharing important information:

International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons,  www.facebook.com/icanw.org?fref=ts    Website, www.icanw.org

Nuclear Age Peace Foundation,  www.facebook.com/wagingpeace   Website,  www.wagingpeace.org

Physicians for Social Responsibility,  www.facebook.com/psrnational     Website, www.psr.org

P.S. My next update will be on June 12, the date of a special anniversary, personally and politically.

Peace and Gratitude.

Mr. Rubin, longtime Santa Monica-based activist, may be contacted at facebook.com/jerry.rubin.98 and JerryPeaceActivistRubin@earthlink.net
