PEACE TRAIL ON THE NATIONAL MALL

https://www.usip.org/peace-trail-national-mall

United States Institute of Peace (start of Peace Trail)

United States Department of State

The Great Seal of the United States – the olive branch and arrows denote the power of peace and war, and the eagle faces towards the symbol of peace.

Albert Einstein Memorial

“As long as I have any choice in the matter, I shall live only in a country where civil liberty, tolerance, and equality of all citizens before the law prevail”

“Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding”.

Lincoln Memorial

Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President.

“With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation’s wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphan – to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations.”

“I Have a Dream” speech given by Martin Luther King Jr – The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom – 28 August 1963.

Arts of War and Arts of Peace

Vietnam Veterans Memorial

Korean War Veterans Memorial

World War II Memorial

Martin Luther King Jr Memorial

Out of the mountain of despair, a stone of hope.

Martin Luther King Quotes:

“It is not enough to say, “we must not wage war’. It is necessary to love peace and sacrifice for it. We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war, but on the positive affirmation of peace.” California 1967. (Inscribed in stone)

“If we are to have peace on earth … our loyalties must transcend our race, our tribe, our class, and our nation, and this means we must develop a world perspective.” Atlanta, Georgia, 1967. (Inscribed in stone)

“True Peace is not merely the absence of tension, it is the presence of justice.”

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.”

“If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.”

“Courageous people do not fear forgiving for the sake of peace.”

Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial

“In these days of difficulty, we Americans everywhere must and shall choose the path of social justice, the path of faith, the path of hope, and the path of love toward our fellow man.” October 1932

“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” March 1933

“Unless the peace that follows recognises that the whole world is one neighbourhood and does justice to the whole human race the germs of another world war will remain as a constant threat to mankind.”

“Freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, freedom from fear.”

“The structure of World Peace cannot be the work of one man or one party or one nation. It must be a peace which rests on the cooperative effort of the whole world.”

Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt quote

“It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.” (First US Delegate to the United Nations)

Thomas Jefferson Memorial

“We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal. That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. Among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness……. ” Throughout his life, Jefferson’s private correspondence included many references to his passion for peace, consistent with his commitment to ideas of the Enlightenment.

Japanese Cherry Trees

Washington Monument

George Washington

“My first wish is to see this plague of mankind, war, banished from the earth …. to see the whole world in peace and the inhabitants of it as one band of brothers, striving who should contribute most to the happiness of mankind.” Upon returning to Mount Vernon after nine long years of war, Washington designed and ordered a weathervane with a dove of peace to crown the cupola and serve as a symbol of peace at his home.

Peace Gardens/Parks

Ralphe Bunche Park

1 Ave., between E 42^nd St and E 43^rd St, Manhattan, New York

New York City’s first Peace Park, a place of frequent assembly and dissent given the site’s history and proximity to the United Nations. It embodies in many ways the principles of human understanding and freedom of expression. Named in honour of Ralphe Bunche, a titan of 20^th Century diplomacy and the first African-American recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. At the center of the park, the 50 foot tall obelisk, Peace Form One, pierces the sky, dedicated as an homage to Bunche by sculptor and friend Daniel Larue Johnson. The northwest granite staircase was designed around 1948 by the architectural firm of Andrews and Clark and inscribed in 1975 with a passage from the Book of Isaiah: “they shall beat their swords into ploughshares”.
