As part of Pace e Bene’s contribution to and support of the Declaration of Peace campaign to end the war in Iraq, both Ken Butigan (co-founder) and Lindsay Martin (intern) are in Washington DC for several weeks, preparing for and participating in the “Week of Action” between Sept. 21 and 28.

Updates on the activities of Martin can be read about on her blog, including pictures of some of the events and descriptions of the politically-charged atmosphere.

The kickoff event to the week of actions begins with a press conference on Sept. 21, with speakers including Rep. John Lewis from Georgia.
