About the White Ribbon Campaign:
Violence in Gujarat continues. The country seems to be perpetually on the brink of war. And the violence continues in the rest of the country - perhaps not physically, but in the kinds of conversations we overhear, the gestures we watch people make: words and expressions of war-mongering and communal hatred are all around us. We may be confused about the kinds of responses we should make, we may be uncertain about what we can do individually and collectively to make a difference.
But all of us share a common sense of outrage, and a quest for peace. We know that war will not help the peoples of South Asia, and communalism turns our pride in Indian plurality into a sad caricature. It is about time that we expressed our need for peace, for non-violence, together; it is about time we stopped being the 'silent majority'. Because we are both - unfortunately silent and fortunately a majority.
So say YES to peace. Peacefully!
*Wear a White Ribbon*
*Ask at least five other people to wear white ribbons*
We need symbols of peace, of secularism, of humaneness: we need to stand up and be counted. Please pass on this request to as many people as you can.
Let us wear our white ribbons till the violence ends - both in deed and in word.
Thank you.
