I say we must have a movement that brings those troops home and launch a crusade to transform our school buildings, we launch a crusade to see to it that every citizen has adequate and affordable housing, we launch a crusade to make universal health care. We need not soldiers anymore in the world. We've had enough of them in western history.” - - Rev. James M. Lawson, Jr

Since the Iraq and Afghanistan wars not only have the Western nations destroyed many countries; but the cost of those wars and the lacking value of human life destroyed our own communities. Turning our values towards our communities to create the building blocks to peace is our work. What are you building with your energies today?
