Waging Peace: /verb/
Activate Justice + Instigate Joy by committing acts of Courage.
Here at “The Waging Peace Project” we are peacemakers, committing acts of courage for the sake of justice, rooted in a relentless love that shouts the worth of every human being.
We can’t stay quiet because Justice is what love looks like in public, says Dr. Cornel West.
We are courage-activators, shouting for you to pull up your seat at the peacemaking table because You are exactly what our world needs.
We hope you’ll join us as we make this world into a more courageous, compassionate, and freaking awesome place for us all.
“Courage requires us to plant our feet firmly on two things: that joy is our birthright and everyone under the sun deserves it.”
- Diana Oestreich
We believe that committing acts of courage for the sake of justice right where we live will transform ourselves and our neighborhoods into a wildly beautiful world where everyone has a reason to celebrate.
We hope you’ll join us on this brave, messy, and wild ride.
Our Mission is to inspire & activate everyday people to change our world by waging peace like their neighbors’ lives depend on it. Because they do.
We are an education organization making our neighborhoods into our classrooms and ourselves into unlikely accomplices for good.
Because the Good that is possible in this World is so GOOD we are compelled to chase after it.
We are not bench sitters; we are assassins of apathy and curators of compassion. We are breakers of the status quo and interrupters of Violence.
Because Justice and Joy cannot wait
Each act of waging peace is a drop in the bucket, that we are filling up together to change the world! Each drop matters because Courage is contagious, share your story so we can cheer each other on and make waging peace the BEST group project we’ve ever been part of!
