Peace activist Aouie will offer a multimedia presentation on the subject of "Soldiers, Mercenaries, Terrorists, Etc." on May 29 at the 11:00am Sunday Service of the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles, 2936 West 8th Street. Free. (213) 389-1356. For directions, go to http://www.uula.org.
On Memorial Day Weekend, when most of the nation is glorifying our fallen soldiers, this multimedia presentation will examine some of the reasons why people join armies, what soldiers do and what they accomplish. The presentation will also compare and contrast why various groups engage in acts of violence and/or destruction.
Aouie has been an active member of the Coalition for World Peace (CFWP) since 2001, organizing and staffing a weekly peace video and tabling outreach at the Santa Monica Third Street Promenade. For more information about CFWP, go to http://www.coalitionforworldpeace.org
