Nominated for the 2004 Nobel Peace Prize, September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows presents a powerful collection of essays, photos, and heartfelt stories about their deeply personal responses to their very public tragedies.
September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows is a nonprofit group of family members of terrorism victims that is dedicated to finding alternatives to war as a response to personal and national tragedies. Peaceful Tomorrows represents more than eighty people who lost loved ones in New York City, Washington, DC, and Shanksville, Pennsylvania, as well as more than two thousand supporters. They have spoken in twenty-five states and eight foreign countries, and have sent delegations to both Afghanistan and Iraq to meet with civilians who similarly lost loved ones due to terrorism and war. This book recounts the first year and a half of the Peaceful Tomorrows's existence--how these families came together to form the group and how they have struggled to keep their losses from being used as a justification for further violence and terror.
