Ramana, Joshua Frank speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2024. This session was sponsored by Science for the People, Verso, and CounterPunch.\n\nThis panel will explore the myths of nuclearism and the attempts to modernize the machines of war and power in today\u2019s world. Participants will discuss how nuclear power is a dangerous distraction from decarbonizing energy systems, and a deadly threat to Indigenous rights and Land Back movements. They will outline how the new nuclear arms race is consuming budgets and increasing risks for us all. And they will look at the role nuclear weapons play in geopolitical nightmares, including in relation to Israel\u2019s genocide of Palestinians. But the discussion will also highlight the work of the global antinuclear movement and how everyone can engage in the struggle for nuclear abolition and a nuclear free future.\n\nThe next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, July 3-6.
