"One may wonder why I do the work I do when I have lost my daughter to violence. I was told early on, "the only way to make changes is from the inside out". And that is what I have tried to do with my extra time."

"I am currently working on my first solo music project, and I am trying to start a nonviolent march in march 09, for all the victims lost to violence all around the city the last 10 years. How do I see music as a contribution to the non violence movement?"

About
The Gathering’s Mission
The mission of The Gathering is to build an Intergenerational, movement, rooted in history, cultures and non-violent direct action to heal communities, build collective strength and generate an environment of hope and opportunity.
Civil rights and social justice organizations have come to understand that collective action on a national basis is required to stop child incarceration and challenge the immoral process which perpetuates an unjust justice system. These groups are working under extremely difficult circumstances and many of them with little or no resources. The Gathering is a national movement that creates a coordinated space to 1) fortify relationships between regional groups, 2) support local endeavors and 3) enhance the ongoing organizing of non-violent direct action training. Central to its mission is strengthening our moral environment.
