Remembering Nagasaki and Hiroshima

Another supplementary post on Naomi Hirahara's, Summer of the Big Bachi. Because last year was the 60th anniversary of the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, there are still some interesting virtual memorials to explore:

The Exploratorium has a photo exhibit, Remembering Nagasaki while Art for a Change, has an exhibit of paintings and drawings by atomic bomb survivors. Here is another exhibit, Portraits of the 70 Hibakusha. Check of this picture of Chizuko Hirahara. Finally, we shouldn't foget the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum.
