Hiroshima Survivor Visits New Mexico

Keiko Murakami seen here, is a World War II Hiroshima survivor and now is a peace activist who was brought in by a group called Hiroshima Calling to Albuquerque.  On a warm May afternoon she toured the National Museum of Science and History in Albuquerque where she got to see a replica of the atomic bomb dropped on her neighborhood.  Here she walks by a B-29 bomber, similar to the one that dropped the first Atomic bomb on her town.
