This is from Jade, one of our Canadian
fans for peace: "I'm wearing Fans For Peace Gear....I'm
putting bumper stickers such as 'Resist' on my car...I'm reading
Adbusters....I'm sure as hell not buying anything from Nike
or the Gap...I'm explaining to my friends why the 'War on
Iraq' was an unjustified farce...I'm thinking outside the
box." Rock on, Jade!!

When
Bush spoke at the Coast Guard Academy graduation on May 21st,
Myshele went down to carry a Peace flag and "Impeach
Bush" sign, wearing a Fans For Peace t-shirt, of course.
We were not allowed near the speech, but we watched the Presidential
motorcade drive by, and were interviewed by local news media.
Myshele also goes to rallies regularly, covers
her car with political stickers, talks to strangers and friends
about world events, and will be getting a master's degree
at the Centre for Human Ecology in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Chelsea went to a war protest on
her town square that was organized by some kids at her school.
"It was awesome, people would yell at us or give us the
finger from their cars, and we would give them a peace sign
and wave our signs around back at them."

Sarah
went to a protest called "Baring Witness" (baringwitness.org)
in Dallas, TX. "What we did was strip down to our bare
skin, and then laid out on a hillside to form the word "peace",
and then it was photographed from a helicopter. It's not a
"goo goo dolls fans for peace" thing, but the reason
i did it was for the goos."
Sarah also wrote a great peace song, which is
on the lyrics page.

Vicki is talking to her teenage children
and their friends to let them know that it is okay to not
believe in war. She says, "there are other alternatives
and peace is the ultimate goal! We each have a voice and we
can use it. The US is a free country and it is our constitutional
right to speak our mind and just because you don't agree with
the masses does not make you wrong. Fight for what you believe
in."
