Activists Gather for United National Peace Conference in Albany

HeadlineJul 26, 2010

Hundreds of peace activists gathered in Albany this weekend for the United National Peace Conference. Speakers include Kathy Kelly, co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Nonviolence.

Kathy Kelly: “We have to become many more than we are now, and one of the ways to do that will be at the grassroots and the nitty gritty, continuing to build and expand our communities dedicated to looking for ways to take actions commensurate to the crimes being committed. It requires our lives. It requires us to rearrange our priorities to make the number one priority in our everyday life becoming constant, persistent antiwar activists. What better purpose is there in life right now?” (Video from http://mediasanctuary.tv)
