The Peace Works mission:
Peace Works will provide a forum for exploring the meaning and practice of justice and peace as they affect the social, economic, political, environmental, and spiritual aspects of people’s lives. It will proceed with the understanding that all people share not only human rights, aspirations, and needs, but also the foibles of fear, aggression and domination. With this in mind, we will explore our own hearts first as we work outward to the world community. Striving for fundamental social change and a just society, we will focus on individuals and groups who work on local, national, and global levels to resist oppression, inequality, and war. We will analyze war, racism, poverty, global economic inequality, oppression of women and other forms of injustice. But we will also strive to formulate and communicate a hopeful vision of a world community that responds constructively to its inhabitants’ rights, aspirations and needs.
