For several years I have joined members of the Brandywine Peace Community in demonstrations on Good Friday at Lockheed Martin’s facility in King of Prussia, PA. Lockheed Martin is the world’s largest weapons manufacturer.
The annual peaceful action takes the form of a religious observance, led by clergy, including the traditional Stations of the Cross. A few participants feel moved to carry the Good Friday message into the world by carrying their crosses and the message to Lockheed Martin employees in the workplace. This action results in their arrest for disorderly conduct or trespass.
This year, after a long and thoughtful process, I decided to attempt to carry the Good Friday message to Lockheed Martin employees, and I was arrested for disorderly conduct on their driveway entrance.
There is no WAY to peace. Peace IS the way.
