On August 6th, 1945 at approximately 8:15 am, the atomic bomb ‘little boy’ exploded over the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Koji Kobayashi managed to survive the bomb and years later battle radiation linked illnesses. A former journalist, now active in the peace movement, Koji spoke about his recollections of that day and his enduring belief in world peace.
