  1. Barefoot Gen
    A Cartoon Story of Hiroshima
    Resource Type: Book
    First Published: 1989
    Barefoot Gen is the powerful, tragic story of the bombing of Hiroshima seen through the eyes of a young boy - the artist himself - growing up in a peace-loving Japanese family. It is a graphic 'lest we forget' depiction of nuclear devastation and a troubling index of certain kinds of urban ruin even before the bombs fall.

    A Cartoon Story of Hiroshima
    Resource Type: Book
    First Published: 1989
    The acclaimed Barefoot Gen story picks up the day after the bombing of Hiroshima as the Gen family encounters the effects of the bomb, hunger, the hardened hearts of those more fortunate than themselves, and new ethical dilemmas. What is to become of them with their city burned to ashes but their trials just begun?

Mission Connexions exists to support individuals and groups working for freedom and social justice. We work to maintain and make available a record of the theory and practice of people struggling against oppression and for social change. We believe that the more we know about the struggles, victories, and defeats of the past, and about those who took part in them, the better equipped we will be to bring a new world into being. Connexions maintains a physical archive of books and documents, and is engaged in an ongoing project to build and expand an indexed digital archive of documents. We try to feature a wide variety of resources reflecting a diversity of viewpoints and approaches to social change within our overall mandate of support for democracy, civil liberties, freedom of expression, universal human rights, secularism, equality, economic justice, environmental responsibility, and the creation and preservation of community. We are internationalist in our orientation, but as a Canadian-based project we feature an especially extensive collection of Canadian documents and profiles of Canadian activist organizations.
