The Peninsula Peace and Justice Center in Palo Alto, California
“Our country right or wrong—when right, we keep it right, and when wrong, we make it right.”
If you’re concerned about the perpetual war agenda of America’s military-industrial-media complex, then the Peninsula Peace and Justice Center in Palo Alto, California, deserves your support. www.peaceandjustice.org.
Also, the center is a good model and resource if you wish to establish in your local community a similar organization for peace and social justice.
Voting is wonderful, but it is not enough. Get involved in waging peace and social justice in whatever way you can, large or small. Apathy is the best ally of America’s military-industrial-media complex and warmongers such as George Bush and John McCain.
The Peninsula Peace and Justice Center, whose roots go back to the Vietnam War, sponsors many activities each month: protests, leafleting, guest speakers (such as Noam Chomsky, Robert Scheer, Norman Solomon and Amy Goodman), communications with America’s political leaders, monthly live forums on local television, and much more.
Paul George, a grassroots peace activist for more than four decades, leads the Peace and Justice Center and is effective in helping build broad-based coalitions. He has dedicated his life to the center and its goals. You can check out and subscribe to his blog at www.peacerant.org.
