This beautiful 2008 Peace Calendar features 12 months of inspiration, education and solidarity.
Other great features of the calendar include:
- Full Color, 14" by 22"
- People’s history annotations
- Holidays for many faiths
- Lunar cycles, 13 native moons
- Union printed in USA on New Leaf recycled paper containing 50% postconsumer waste; processed chlorine free, no dioxin
- The cover/December art is Nancy Hom's timeless ode to movement and beauty. A major '08 focus is the presidential election and the heroic work being done by grassroots groups to heal our gravely ill democracy.
Other themes:
the African American horsemen of Fletcher St. in Philadelphia;
faith quilts;
polar bear as symbol of global warming;
small farmers around around the world resisting corporate globalization;
a Catholic gay couple's hospice work with AIDS patients;
Iraq Veterans Against the War; the Israeli barrier wall;
Bolivian indigenous resistance;
and the upside-down world map.
Art and photography- sometimes beautiful, sometimes challenging, but always powerful- remind us that together we can build a better world.
