Hibakusha and teen storyteller share same worry in Tohoku

Original: 47news

In Japan's Tohoku region, an 80-year-old survivor of the atomic bombings has been meeting with a junior high school student who serves as a storyteller, passing down survivors' accounts. The two discovered they carry the same concern: how to keep memories of the bombing alive as fewer witnesses remain. Their exchange highlights efforts to hand the baton of remembrance to a younger generation.

Why now: Renewed attention to passing down atomic bomb survivor testimonies as the hibakusha generation ages.
