150 March for Peace on 9-11

150 people turned out to march for Peace on September 11, 2019. The event was in remembrance of the violence and suffering on that date in 2001, and also to honor the 150th anniversary of the birth of Indian peace activist Mahatma Gandhi. Marchers walked through the park and the University of Rochester campus, and over the Genesee River to the MK Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence on South Plymouth Avenue. It was concluded with a speech by Arun Gandhi, grandson of the activist. The event was sponsored by the India Community Center, Veterans for Peace and Colgate Rochester Crozier Divinity School. It was held in solidarity with events worldwide.
