Berkeley is such a big fan of getting pre-schoolers and ages down involved in politics. Because 3 year olds, carefully pointed and prodded by their parents, believe strongly in a multilateral solution to Middle East Conflict.

Please Join Us!
Children's Peace March

We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.

Native American proverb

What & Who: Children, parents, school staff, and community allies from Berkeley, Oakland, and Marin will march and gather together to hear the voices of children speak out for peace and against current war efforts. Children around the world want and need peace in order to survive. Children in the Bay Area want community resources to go towards good schools, parks, housing, gardens and playgrounds.

Children attending local preschools and elementary schools will deliver their songs and messages of peace to their elected officials who represent their interests nationally, statewide, and locally. Confirmed officials include Assemblywoman Aroner, Congresswoman Lee's education aide, Mayor Dean, Councilmember Worthington, Councilmember Hawley, School Board Member Doran. Local and national media are invited to attend.

Participating children attend the New School of Berkeley, Berkwood Hedge, Jefferson Elementary, Washington Elementary, Berkeley Arts Magnet Elementary, Rosa Parks Elementary, Malcolm X Elementary, Marin School (other preschools and elementary schools are also invited to participate).
