I have been involved with the Peace Institute for 22 years and have seen them do incredible work with the families of murder victims and bring peace to the people of Boston and beyond. I'm proud to coach the Captains of Team MGB.
While national priorities shift and critical funding for communities is on the chopping block, we are reminded of a truth that has fueled my more than 30 years of activism: The power of the people is greater than the people in power.
For all the Spanish-speaking people, how do you say God in Spanish? Dios. Growing up in Mission Hill, I was taught to keep the S silent. !Ay Dio!
In this case, it stands for Do It Ourselves. The Louis D. Brown Peace Institute believes in DIO. It's a mindset rooted in community, culture, and collective action. They've never waited to be saved. They’ve always built together.
