Peace in our time, brothers and sisters

Join us from June 22-26 On the Road to No War:
A Walk for Disarmament from Camp Peary, Virginia to Naval Station Norfolk.
The walk will cover over 50 miles and stop at 13 military installations in the Hampton Roads, Virginia, area, the most militarized place in the western hemisphere.
We walk believing nonviolence is the true force that can transform our world filled with war, violence, and hatred, into one of justice and peace, were every human need is met. We believe that “beating swords into plowshares” is the key to personal, national, and global security.
Thus our walk is a call:
· for an end to the preparation, legitimization, and execution of all war
· for our nation to be an example of disarmament for the world
· for nonviolent solutions to conflicts
· for the conversion of our war-based economy to one based on meeting human needs and environmental protection.
We walk to share a vision of a disarmed United States with the community, passersby, and military personnel, believing that the journey will take us a step closer to disarming our hearts and our nation.
