Pacifist Posse

Sympathetic group

Break Down the Walls seems to be a group similar to—though perhaps a little more serious than—PP. It is a non-sectarian group that does not align itself politically and simply hopes to promote “World Understanding, Peace and Love” (caps. in the original). Here’s a sample from the “about” page:

“Break Down the Walls” is a project that is committed to building understanding and tolerance in the world. It intends to do this by calling on people who want to make a difference, to join us in inspiring discussions and sharing, so that we can all be inspired to embrace understanding and tolerance, and so that we can then inspire others one person at a time, and initiate a chain reaction of people inspiring more people.

I came upon Break Down the Walls because of one of the pages presents some data about the massive misappropriation of the world’s financial resources for military purposes. You can read it at the page called “World Peace.” I’ll add Break Down the Walls to the blogroll.

Enough already

Four years is simply too long…by four years. That’s the idea I dumped into my personal blog when discussing the pending rally in C’ville sponsored by Hip Hop Caucus, Iraq Vets Against the War, Books not Bombs (National Youth and Student Peace Coalition), and CCPJ.

Here are a few more links that have content relevant to pacifism or non-violence.

After suitable review, we can decide which of these, if any, to add to the lists in the right rail.

My second post honoring MLK is up at my personal site. It’s a recollection of a brief interaction with a person, Peter Hanssen who influenced me greatly when he and I were in high school. (At least one PP member will remember Peter.)
