Our weekly peace vigil is rooted in the principles of active nonviolence, and we expect vigil participants to refrain from violent actions, words, or messages on signs and banners.
Watch a video of featured speaker, Hallie Rumsey-Lasersohn, from 5/30/25, speaking about the meaning of nonviolence.
While our weekly anti-war protest at the U.S. Custom House is our steadfast commitment, we also organize policy advocacy efforts and special events. We work with allies to educate, activate, and resist.
