Great job Doug. Like Garth's BW photo as well for thumbnail.
One note. United for Peace is not a standing local peace organization as of
yet, but a local interfaith initiative- evolving network largely supported by
the Chicago Peace Rsponse, AFSC, and Chicagoans Against the War on Iraq ( the
group sponsoring the City Council resolution. It was organized primarily
around the interfaith letter to Bush and this candlelight walk. Hence the
webpage is hosted and maintained by the AFSC. A national anti-war coalition
of the same name does exist, but the organizational relationship to Chicago
is through l local chapters and offices of national endorsing organizations
like AFSC, Peace Action, WILPF ect.
In order to avoid confusion, remain inclusive, provide local info, and avoid
the impression of sectarian preference, CIMC has routinely included a list of
local anti-war websites in storyblocs related to anti-war activity. So I cut
and pasted those links in.
Best -Dick
