Overview
This anti-nuclear poster is about the risks of accidents from nuclear power or visits by nuclear powered and/or armed warships in New Zealand in the early 1980s.
The arrows point to 'ARA' and 'N', which is the symbol of New Zealand's National political party. ARA may stand for Applied Research Associates, an American organisation founded in 1979 to support the United States government's actions following a nuclear event (including nuclear terrorism).
