Washtenaw County WAND will show a new half-hour video entitled "Deadly Deception: General Electric, Nuclear Weapons, and Our Environment" at our next meeting. "Deadly Deception" is produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Debra Chasnoff and distributed by the INFACT/GE campaign. INFACT began in 1977 with a successful boycott of Nestle, related to deaths caused by the company's propaganda to Third World women regarding its infant formula, and continĂșes today with the GE boycott.

"Deadly Deception" exposes the terrifying human and environmental cost of GE's nuclear weapons development, warning us that people are dying and will die from these weapons even if no more nuclear bombs are dropped.

GE workers have been poisoned by radiation and asbestos.

GE tops the Environmental Protection Agency's list of toxic dump sites.

While many are familiar with the cancer and birth defects caused by the Hanford nuclear bomb plant in Washington, not many know that GE managed the plant.

GE is the leader in producing components for nuclear weapons.

In Washington D.C., GE actively lobbies for nuclear arms.

Come see this video to learn the truth about this company that claims to "bring good things to life." And join the GE boycott. Winning the GE campaign will send a signal to every nuclear weapon maker that this is a business no company can afford to be in.

The meeting is Sunday, September 8th at St. Aidan's Northside Church, 1679 Broadway, Ann Arbor. Meeting at 7:30 pm, film at 8 pm.

WAND's future plans include a "post-war" teach-in. A planning meeting specifically for the teach-in will be held on Sunday, September 22 at St. Aidan's at 7:30 pm. Everyone who is interested is encouraged to come to this meeting, as we are hoping to work with other groups for this project. Cali 662-2475 for more information.
