July 23 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm PST free
The plans by the International Olympic Committee and the Japanese Suga government to go ahead with the Olympics in the middle of a pandemic could create a new virus according to Japanese scientists. It also takes place with the government threatening to release over 1 million tons of radioactive water from Fukushima into the Pacific Ocean and the failure to remove the melted nuclear rods from the reactor 10 years after the meltdown.
This panel and discussion will look at the business and corruption of the Olympics, and how it now could lead to a health-care disaster as Japanese hospitals are already overloaded with Covid patients. Even the health-care and doctors union is demanding that the Olympics be canceled.

Professor Geoge Wright, An expert on the history of the Olympics
Tsukuru Fors, Pacific Asian Nuclear-Free Peace Alliance
Seto Tadashi, International Secretary/Doro Chiba Support International Committee
Chizu Hamada, NoNukes Action Committee
