'Dr. Albert Schweitzer: "My Address to the People" - Commitment against Nuclear War.' Berlin: Freie Universität Berlin, Gandhi-Informations-Zentrum e.V., 2020. (original) (raw)
On 23 April 1957, Dr. Albert Schweitzer had his “A Declaration of Conscience” published via Radio Oslo. The call for nuclear disarmament was broadcasted by many international radio stations and printed one day later in the New York Times on 24 April 1957. This exhibition was opened on 24 April 2017, sixty years later, and was on display at the Berlin Anti-War Museum’s Peace Gallery until 24 September 2017. Meanwhile the Foundation German Albert Schweitzer Center (“Stiftung Deutsches Albert-Schweitzer-Zentrum Frankfurt/Main”) has organized presentations of this Schweitzer Peace Exhibition in many public places. This exhibition is based on texts by Dr. Albert Schweitzer and addresses his commitment: 1) against any war in principle, 2) against nuclear weapons and nuclear war, 3) for the reverence for life.
