Ever since I began my fast for impeachment February 12th, each morning, from 8 to 9 AM I have stood in front of the building that houses the office of Representative John Conyers, chair of the House Judiciary Committee who is considering articles of impeachment.

I am not asking you to fast, but please join me in maintaining a presence at the courthouse before you go to work each day.

This is a critical time in our nation's history. It is important that we raise our voices at this time any way that we can.

"Building Cultures of Peace"
6th Annual Conference of the
Peace and Justice Studies Association
in conjunction with the Peace and Conflict Studies Consortium
September 11-14, 2008
Portland State University
Portland, Oregon
~ Submit a Proposal: DEADLINE APRIL 1, 2008 ~

War is raging with no end in sight. Politics alone has not solved it. Media has not ended war. Religion does not seem to bring peace. Education alone is impotent. Families are providing cannon fodder, not enough peace builders. Economic instruments and systems seem to favor war more than peace. Law is not bringing the killing to an end. Music, painting, plays, fiction, film--the arts are justifying war more than peace.

None of these elements of our culture are oriented enough toward peace; all are crucial components of our culture. Indeed, each affects each other and each affects the outcome: will our culture tend to produce war or tend to produce peace?
