Exhibit: 70-Year-Old Shadows of Hiroshima Atomic Bombings by artist and photographer elin o'Hara slavick

In August 1945, two atomic bombs were dropped on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing more than 129,000 people. It was the first and only time in history that nuclear weaponry was used for warfare. How did the U.S. military and politicians at the time understand its military significance and ethical implications? How did the victims experience the trauma and the ensuing layers of victimization? What narratives have emerged in our collective remembrance of the war -- and how does this remembrance shape modern day nuclear politics and US-Japan relations? will remain in the Jameson Gallery until October 16th.
