The word \u201cHiroshima\u201d may bring to mind a black-and-white image of a mushroom cloud. It\u2019s easy to forget that it\u2019s an actual city with a million people and a popular baseball team. In 1995, John Biewen visited the city to speak with survivors and to ask: What did the world\u2019s first atomic bombing mean in the place where it happened?\xa0
