It is not an act of “random” “senseless” violence. Sikhs, Muslims, Latinos and Africans are increasingly targets of rising hate in the USA. These attacks are sanctioned by a political culture that tolerates hate speech and promotes xenophobia. As hate is rising in the nation, it is critical that the forces of peace and justice mediate anger into positive energy of relationships. We must build a stronger peace movement for the future of our children and the planet. I stand... Continue reading ...
