Pinwheels
for Peace is a project started by two teachers in Coconut, Florida as a way for students to express
their feelings about what is going on in the world and in their lives.
This
project is non-political – peace doesn’t necessarily have to be associated with
the conflict of war, it can be related to violence/intolerance in our daily
lives, to peace of mind. To each of us,
peace can take a different meaning, but, in the end, it all comes down to a
simple definition: “a state of calm and
serenity with no anxiety, the absence of violence, freedom from conflict or
disagreement among people or group of people”.
The
Pinwheels for Peace came to CHI and RAWA from Unite in Peace ( www.uniteinpeace.org ). View the Pinwheels for Peace slideshow here.
