Topic Background
Grant County Peace Coalition joined in the Silver City 4th of July
Parade for the second year with the theme of "Practicing
Peace." In planning our participation we wanted to include
not only a broad segment of the Peace and Justice community but reach
out to the larger P&J community in the state. Bob & Jamila
were part of a contingent of people from Albuquerque from a number of
groups that joined us
along with people from Las Cruces where there is also a very active
P&J presence. We discuss the parade itself, the larger issues that face
our country, and threats to our freedom from without and within.
This interview was recorded on 3 July 2004 following the parade. |
