>>Ringing Bells for Peace 2013
>>
>>On November 11, 1918 the guns of the "War to end wars" fell silent after more than 29,000,000 soldiers had been killed or wounded. Bells rang out across the world to celebrate the silence, and in 1938, Congress declared Armistice Day, November 11, a national holiday, "to be dedicated to the cause of world peace."
>>
>>Veterans for Peace Chapter 101 invites you to observe ARMISTICE DAY by ringing bells 11 times at 11:00 on November 11 as was done at the end of World War I when the world came together in realization that war is so horrible we must end it now. Please ask your local church to ring their bells and join us at 11am on the corner of Fourth and Santa Clara streets in San Jose for a solemn gathering of bell-ringing for peace.
>>
>>After the solemn gathering, the 11am bell-ringing and a minute of silence there will be an opportunity to address the gathering with personal reflections. Banners and signs are fine but it would be best if the ambience were more reserved until after the bell is rung.
>>
>>In 1954 Congress changed the holiday to
"Veterans Day" to include World War II and
November 11th became a day to honor American
veterans of all wars rather than a day
dedicated to the cause of world peace. In
2008, at the Veterans For Peace national
convention it was voted to return to the
original name of the holiday, "Armistice
Day" in an attempt to restore the original
intent.
