Building a Culture of Peace

Focusing on grassroots activism, the narrative chronicles the formation of the Baptist Pacifist Fellowship in 1939 amidst global turmoil. As a response to war and violence, this group emerged to support Baptist conscientious objectors, facing significant opposition. Throughout major conflicts like World War II and Vietnam, they maintained a commitment to peace and justice. The book highlights the evolution of the Baptist Peace Fellowship of North America, which fosters an interracial and international community dedicated to nonviolence and human rights.
