Swords to Plowshares

Sunday, April 13th Action by Religious Witness “Let Us Beat Our Swords to Plowshares” Hosted by Sister Bernie, this event promises to be very moving and powerful with live performances by acclaimed vocalists and dancers, and a never-before seen ceremony by the Mourning Mothers. This event will include significant crowd participation, calls to worship and brief prayers from representatives of the Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist and Christian traditions, as well as a stirring call to strong direct action and civil disobedience from two of the Bay Area’s most fiery activists, the Rev. Schuyler Rhodes and Father Louis Vitale. An act of nonviolent civil disobedience will follow. 2 p.m., at the Federal Building, 450 Golden Gate, San Francisco
