 What is the Pledge for Peace and how does it work? Signing
 the Pledge for Peace does not commit you to any specific
 action -- but it does commit you to take some action(s) to
 promote peace and end racism.  There may be nationally or
 locally coordinated actions during which all Pledge signers
 are contacted and encouraged to participate.
 
 International ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War & End Racism) is a
 broad coalition of peace groups, religious organizations,
 student groups, anti-globalization, and anti-racism groups.
