Demanding Disarmament-Fourty years ago, the largest anti-nuclear demonstrations in the U.S. history took place in New York City. Delegations arrived from across North America and as far away as Bangladesh and Zambia to demand disarmament and to end the cold war arms race. Upwards of one-million people were estimated to have attended the Jume 12, 1982 march and rally in Central Park. In keeping with its message, the rally was entirely peacefull, and many attendees camped overnight in the park after the crowd began to disperse around 6 p.m.  Five years later the U.S. and U.S.S.R. signed the intermediate-range nuclear forces (INF) treaty, the first time in history that the superpowers had agreed to shrink their nuclear stockpiles.
