Bending the Arc provides a history of the conference and brings together the inspiring, personal stories from such well- known participants as Medea Benjamin, Blasé Bonpane, Kathy Kelly, Bill Quigley, David Swanson, and Ann Wright, among others. Drawing from diverse philosophical and spiritual traditions, contributors share their experiences of working for peace and justice and discuss the obstacles to both. They address a wide range of contemporary problems, including the war on terror, killer drones, the invasions and occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq, mass surveillance, the human cost of war, political-economic impediments to peace, violent extremism, the role of women in peace- building, and the continued threat of nuclear weapons. With its stories of how peace activists found their calling and its exploration of why the world still needs peace activism, the book offers a vision rooted in human community and hope for the future"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 Description based on print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Tekakwitha, Kateri,|cSaint,|d1656-1680|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/n80094166|xInfluence.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002005444 600 17 Tekakwitha, Kateri,|cSaint,|d1656-1680.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1801656 611 20 Kateri Tekakwitha Interfaith Peace Conference|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2020044869|xHistory.|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Peace movements|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85098950|zNew York (State)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n80126293-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Pacifists|zUnited States|vBiography.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2010104696 650 0 Peace|vCongresses.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008108995 650 7 Peace movements.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1055858 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Pacifists.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1050133 650 7 Peace|xCongresses.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1055766 650 7 Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/972484 651 7 New York (State)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1210280 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026049 700 1 Breyman, Steve,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no98116589|eeditor. 700 1 Amidon, John W.,|d1948-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2020045095|eeditor. 700 1 Aumand, Maureen Baillargeon,|d1946-|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2020044908|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tBending the arc|dAlbany : State University of New York, [2020]|z9781438478753|w(DLC) 2020000059 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2558421|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
