Justice for Julius Jones

Welcome to my final project of the Elective Term. This term I took a humanities course called Global Peace. In the past 3 weeks, we learned about Gandhi and his principles for peaceful protesting. We also learned about other examples of peacemakers like Martin Luther King Jr by watching Selma . Throughout the course, we also learned terms like Sarvodaya. Sarvodaya is the answer to all isms like socialism and capitalism because isms create separation and Sarvodaya is about raising together. To explain this concept Gandhi once said, " After I go, I do not want any ism. There should be no Gandhism." For the global part of this class, we compared ruling documents from countries around the world. For this action project, we were assigned to pick an issue we wanted to peacefully protest against. I chose to protest the death penalty. It would mean a lot of you could take a couple of seconds to sign this petition !
