Iraq War 6th Year Memorials Planned in Oklahoma City The March 19, six-year anniversary of the start of the U.S. war in Iraq will be commemorated in Oklahoma City with memorial events, public vigils, and a silent memorial walk, according to planners. Peace House Director Nathaniel Batchelder said that the tone of events planned this year is more to seek higher wisdom to make the world less violent and more humane, and less to tell Washington, D.C., what to do. In a statement sent to The City Sentinel, Batchelder said, “We are hopeful that a new administration and Congress can resolve the Middle East conflicts with more diplomacy and less violence.” Start: 00:00

Bring the Backbone Campaign's Procession for the Future to Your Campus! As you know, getting media attention and recruiting for our causes can sometimes feel dreary. The Backbone Campaign has learned that in terms of media and recruitment - SIZE MATTERS! Therefore we've created our Procession for the Future parade, consisting of over 20 giant puppets, icons and colorful banners. The Procession stands out and communicates that We the People are taking the lead, that progressive solutions are attainable for a beautiful future, and that being part of the movement is loads of fun! Watch a short video. Start: 00:00
