Introduction

We are a group of six women who got together for one reason, that we were 
all horrified by the growing threat of nuclear technology.
We are all different - some of us are single, married, have a baby, live with 
men, live on our own, or with other women. Some of us are lesbians, some are 
heterosexual.Our political views differ. We are anarchists, socialists, radical 
feminists. Some of us believe in armed struggle, others in nonviolence. Some 
of us have no particular political stance.
However, we are all united in two things- one, in our belief that all nuclear 
power and all nuclear weapons are terrible, and two, in our belief of the reward 
of working collectively.
Most of us started out knowing nothing or very little about nuclear power except 
that we disagreed with it. We met once a week, at each other's houses. We usually 
started the meeting with a meal and general chat about what we had seen in the 
papers and what we had read in magazines and books. We gradually got to know 
each other and became friends. In our group we found the support which had been 
lacking in other groups.
Our aim was to get to know as much as possible about nuclear power and to pass 
the information on to other women. To make things easier, we all learned about 
different subjects - safety, weapons, alternatives, politics, civil liberties and 
feminist perspectives. We wrote about what we learned and shared it with each 
other at the meetings.
All of us were scared by the information we discovered - the problems were·as bad 
as we had suspected. But because the group was so supportive, we were able to cope 
with our fears.
