Bellingham is home to the longest-running weekly peace vigil in the nation started in 1966. The Whatcom Peace & Justice Center provides educational programming; leadership on legislative advocacy; and opportunities to resist injustice through public protest, writing, media reform, & organizing. Since opening in 2002, WPJC has become a voice at the table of community stakeholders and policymakers, bringing consciousness of U.S. foreign policy into the local sphere. WPJC has hosted Amy Goodman, Dahr Jamail, Dr. Vincent Harding, Lt. Ehren Watada, Camilo Mejia, Ray McGovern, Elizabeth de la Vega, Dr. Dahlia Wasfi, Kathy Kelly, and others. We are excited to announce that Rev. John Dear will be the Keynote Speaker for our 6th annual celebration of International Day of Peace on Monday, September 21, 2009.
