<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;">Born on the very evening of the 9/11 attack on the Twin Towers, UJP called for a peaceful response to the crisis and played a leading role in opposing the initial attack on Afghanistan and the drive toward war in Iraq.  Dozens of peace and justice organizations and local community groups soon affiliated with UJP, which is now the largest peace and justice coalition in Eastern Massachusetts.</p>
<p style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, Helvetica, Arial;"><img width="150" vspace="5" hspace="10" align="left" src="http://justicewithpeace.org/files/u415/BringTroopsHomeLogo.jpg" alt="Bring Troops & War $$$ Home">UJP sponsored educational programs, vigils, Congressional lobbying, buses to national protests and organized many demonstrations including the largest on Boston Common in a generation in an effort to stop the Iraq War. We learned about the importance of both grassroots and national organizing; the essential link of the wars abroad to the war at home against workers, people of color, and immigrants; the reality of multiple approaches to work and strategy and the need to seek common ground while reserving differences.</p>
