In Kannapolis, NC the Piedmont Peace Project is recognized nationally as a model for groups who want to form tight-knit, multiracial peace coalitions.

Abstract:
With the Persian Gulf War little more than a month old, peace activists in the Triangle area are attempting to regroup after failing to prevent war. The Triangle peace movement had success before the war holding one of the nation’s largest anti-war rallies.

They recognize the need to be more inclusive, but the many differing opinions on how to do so is causing conflict and preventing continued peace efforts.
