The Mayor’s Office of International Affairs, the Consulate General of Japan, and the Japanese community and business leaders in Atlanta join the newly created Japan Committee of Sister Cities International (SCI) in the U.S.-Japan sister cities Bell Ringing Project, to commemorate the 75 years of peace since the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This project calls for citizen diplomats and city leaders to coordinate bell ringing in sister cities across the United States and Japan. Tonight’s bell ringing occurs at 10:02 pm (EDT), Saturday, August 8 to coincide with the actual time and date the second bomb fell on Nagasaki at 11:02 am, Sunday, August 9 (Japan time). The project was dreamed of by artist, community leader, and social activist Richard Fukuhara, who unfortunately passed away before his dream could manifest. At the time of his death, Richard was working on a vision of his to have bells around the world ring 75 times, 44 or 47 times (the duration of the bomb’s drop on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, respectively) to honor those lives lost. His spirit lives on in all of us who carry out this project now in his stead as we strive for peace and mutual understanding between people around the world.
