The article focuses on the U.S. citizens response towards nuclear disarmament. Throughout the country, more and more activists are looking at U.S. President George W. Bush's new nuclear weapons policy and are calling out: Just say no. The numbers are still quite small 1,000 people are expected to attend a June 12 event in New York City commemorating the twentieth anniversary of a demonstration that drew a million people to Central Park to call for a freeze in the nuclear arms race. But while this year's turnout may pale beside the one in 1982, the organizers are hoping to spark the beginnings of a much larger movement.
