Category Resistance – 2015
On July 28, 2012 Megan Rice, then 82, together with Michael R. Walli (63) and Gregory I. Boertje-Obed (57), broke into a so-called “Y-12 Security Complex” in Oak Ridge, Tennessee: one of the tightly guarded places where the United States stores highly enriched, weapons-grade uranium. The three – all members of “Now Swords to Ploughshares” – sprayed peace slogans.
