Stories of Key Peace & Justice Work

Bill has been deeply involved in the peace and justice movement for the past two decades, and has formed personal working relationships with many key organizations and leaders active throughout that community.

Bill is also an active member in the Fellowship of Reconciliation USA, World Beyond War, and local Black Lives Matter group, and shares co-coordinator responsibilities for the Stop Recruiting Kids Campaign (for which On Earth Peace serves as the national sponsor organization).

Military Families Speak Out

Military Families Speak Out is an organization of military families who are opposed to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and have a loved one currently serving in the military, who has served in the military since 9/11, or who has died as a result of these wars. As people with loved ones in the military, members have both a special need and a unique role to play in speaking out. Bill has been in Military Families Speak Out from the beginning and serves on its governing board.

On Earth Peace's Impact on Bill

“When I first came to OEP, like many older white people in this country who came of age during the Vietnam War, I was mostly interested just in stopping war. My work with OEP has helped me see the interconnected web of racism, sexism, and other forms of oppression and violence that makes the system and culture of endless war possible. Only by ending these at the same time, can we truly put an end to war...”
