Dedication from Diane Scanlon

Dear IIPE friends and fellow peace educators,

I was told by Pete Seeger to stop asking myself if the song is good and start asking what is the song good for. This video is dedicated to all of you -- because nothing changes- until it changes. Keep the fires burning.

Nothing Changes. New song by Diane Scanlon.
