On Wednesday, Feb 21, from 6-8 pm, the film "Good Thinking" will be shown at the Peace & Justice Center, 60 Lake St., Burlington. This free event is hosted by the Burlington Branch of Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF). "Good Thinking" (2016), a documentary by Anthony Donovan, educates viewers on the history and dangers of nuclear weapons and waste and documents decades of antinuclear efforts. A 90 minute section of the film will be shown, followed by discussion with Dr. John Reuwer, Physicians for Social Responsibility. Dr. Reuwer has been studying and speaking about the medical effects of nuclear weapons since 1980, when Ronald Reagan was talking about winning a nuclear war with the Soviet Union. At that time, physicians and scientists had a major impact on convincing Reagan and the American public to support nuclear disarmament. Weapons' levels decreased dramatically over the next 30 years, before their recent resurgence with plans for a new nuclear arms race at a ridiculous cost to all humanity. He currently teaches conflict resolution at St. Michael College.
