Honoring Peace

Our celebration in honor of the Day of the Conscientious Objector was a beautiful success. Several generations present, we sang war resistor songs, heard stories from Obie about his great grandfather who was a conscientious objector and went to jail for it, honored New Zealand's most famous conscientious objector, Archibald Baxter, and playing Theater of Liberation games to question our own resolve to stand up for what we believe in and collaborated on tactics.  Then we finished it up planting a feijoa tree, which will hopefully feed many generations to come!
