Hung from the Peace Pentagon after September 11, 2001, the cycle of violence continues.

"Non-violence is a form of action that affirms life, speakers out against oppression, and acknowledges the value of each person."

US State Dept. says silence or anonymity on social media is suspicious:

"The lack of any online presence, or having social media accounts restricted to ‘private’, may be reflective of evasiveness and call into question the applicant’s credibility."
