 Day to reclaim the original meaning behind this special day:\nTo unite 
 women of the world to organize and promote peaceful solutions to 
 conflict.\n\nIn response to the carnage of the Civil War, Julia Ward Howe's 
 1870 Mother's Day Proclamation declared:\n               \n\n              
 Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn\n              All that we 
 have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience.\n              
 We, the women of one country, will be too tender of those of another 
 country\n              To allow our sons to be trained to injure 
 theirs........Disarm, Disarm!\n\n\nFor creative readings of Mother's Day

 for a more peaceful world.\n\nIn honor of Julia Ward Howe, and in 
 solidarity with all the mothers of the world who are suffering today from 
 the carnage of war in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, 
 Palestine, and elsewhere in the world, we invite mothers and their loved 
 ones to join us this Mother's Day to walk united against war.  We will read 
 Howe's Mother's Day Proclamation, and sing and rally for peace following
