As The Doomsday Clock Nears Midnight, We Can Abolish Nuclear Weapons
Published 5 years, 4 months ago
Description

I speak with Seth Shelden of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons about the treaty, how it came about, what it will do and what people in the United States can do to press our government to ratify it.
