Ito [silentfalloutproject.org@gmail.com] wants to give you an update about the
Silent Fallout Project. It has been more than five months since Silent Fallout
was screened in Baltimore. He wants to express his sincere gratitude to all who
supported the project during its US tour and hosted screenings. The film was
shown in 20 locations over 43 days to over 600 people. The film aims to raise
awareness about the reality of radiation contamination across the American continent
and how many Americans are unknowingly exposed. It helps people understand that
they are impacted by this issue and then use the US as a starting point to
spark a global conversation about radiation.
Currently,
the project is facing a deficit of $100K, and its future is uncertain. However,
Ito is determined to raise funds and continue its activities. In 2025, which
marks the 80th year since the birth of the atomic bomb, there is a plan to
embark on a European screening tour, produce a new film, conduct a second US
tour, and host a large-scale event on August 6th. Make a donation at https://www.silentfalloutproject.org/donation

“One is called to live
nonviolently, even if the change one works for seems impossible. It may or may
not be possible to turn the US around through nonviolent revolution. But one
thing favors such an attempt: the total inability of violence to change
anything for the better" - Daniel Berrigan
