Seniors for Peace – A celebration of 20 years of Peace Work (TUC Archives)

Redwoods Retirement Center in Mill Valley, CA
When I joined Seniors for Peace at their second ever rally for peace in Iraq on February 7, 2003, I did not dream that 20 years later they would still be coming out every Friday from 4 to 5 pm to the busy intersection near their home. Undaunted – even by hostility – they have called for peace in all the subsequent wars since then.

Among those who I met in 2003 was a survivor of the firebombing of Dresden and a Red Cross worker in London who saw the young men dead on both sides and still mourned their loss of life.

I’m honoring them now – 20 years later – for the work they have continued and expanded since then.
