| The Palm Sunday peace parade | 10/19/2010 | by Bert Newton |
- I live in an intentional community that we call The Urban Village. We pledge together to live simply, to advocate for justice, and to wage peace. In the days after September 11, 2001, the peace dimension of our mission became both increasingly difficult and acutely urgent. By April 2003, the spirits of war and domination appeared almost unstoppable in their conquest of humanity. The largest peace movement the world had ever known had failed to stop the "shock and awe" invasion of Iraq.
