for Peace was catapulted into the national consciousness and
conscience by the first Peace Homework, a Mother's Day
Card. Though only 1000 cards were ordered initially, ultimately
almost 200,000 were sent. The offices of numerous Senators and
Representatives were flooded with mail bags filled with a message
urging them to work for peace.

For my Mother's Day gift this year,
I don't want candy or flowers.
I want an end to war.

We who have given life
must be dedicated
to preserving it.
|
|
|
Please talk peace.
