Every Friday evening from 4:30 - 6:30pm people converge at the intersections of Ocean and Water Streets. These people are a part of the growing local and global calls for peace and justice in the United States and across the world.

"I say we must have a movement that brings those troops home and launch a crusade to transform our school buildings, we launch a crusade to see to it that every citizen has adequate and affordable housing, we launch a crusade to make universal health care. We need not soldiers anymore in the world. We've had enough of them in western history."
