Feb 8 . This morning I listened to NPR's StoryCorp. Hector Black spoke about his daughter's brutal murder...Hector now is an outspoken voice of peace in a world of hatred and violence. Read his story, and hear his quiet and peaceful voice at StoryCorp on NPR. Today...http://www.storycorps.net/

Hector himself is a light in the darkness of violence in our world. He says...

"“Quakers are not so much against war as for peace. We believe that it is more consistent with the teachings of Jesus to live a life that takes away the occasion for war and violence, thus sowing seeds of peace instead of fighting wars.”
