The World March for Peace and Non Violence is now in the USA! - Come and March with Them
This March is to raise worldwide awareness of the need for non violence at all levels. To self, to others, to family, psychological, spiritual, cultural, racial, economical, ecological, sexual, religious, and of course physical. It is also to stop wars and the use of nuclear weapons.
