Can we imagine a world free of nuclear weapons?

On the next Your Call, we ask, are we on the path to global nuclear disarmament or not? President Obama is going to spend 80 billion dollars to modernize the U.S. nuclear arsenals, starting with 8 billion this year. What does modernizing actually mean? And what is the state of U.S. nuclear capability? Are we moving towards nuclear escalation rather than disarmament? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. If we aim for a nuclear-free world, what steps need to be taken? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Paul Kawika Martin, political & communications director with Peace Action

Scott Yundt, staff attorney with Tri-Valley CARE

Darwin Bond-Grahm, sociologist and researcher with the Los Alamos Study Group
