SEED BOMB
80th Anniversary of the USA-JAPAN Atomic Bombings.
Seeds for the future, to regenerate our polluted Earth.

through learning, expression, and communication about the history of wars, in New
York City, where the development of the atomic bomb began. To commemorate the

related to the Manhattan Project.
