22. Make
your own bumper sticker. Print out the
words, seal it with stick-on book-cover paper, and put your “duct-tape
to make the world a safer place” to good use by taping it to your
bumper. NO WAR ON IRAQ. SAY NO TO WAR. NO WAR FOR OIL. PROTECT
CHILDREN, NOT OIL. DUCKED APE FOR PEACE.
Or buy one from www.progressiveportal.org/resources/flags.html
23. Light a candle and leave it in your window, with the word PEACE written large beneath
it.
24. Buy a Peace Flag, and fly it bravely and free.

Steve Nash, the Canadian basketball player,
wore a jersey saying Shoot for Peace. "I
believe the U.S. going to war would be a mistake. I think it's
something we need to be very careful with. Being a humanitarian,
I believe war is wrong in 99.9 per cent of all cases."
(Steve Nash, Montreal Gazette, Feb 11th 2003)
26. Make
a sign to hang on your gate. It just
needs paper. And words. And colours. And string. And hope. Or
hang it on a public railing somwhere, where it can grow into a
peace shrine; see www.ontherailingsorg.uk
27. OK
– get serious! Get together with some friends and make a BIG
sign – see Solution #61.
28. Organize
an Art for Peace event, when people come together to paint umbrellas,
jackets, gumboots, and posters, make papier maché puppets, and
generally get creative, ready for the next peace march.
29. Carry a sign on your skin, your clothing, your face, your T-shirt, your jeans,
your jacket, your behind. Stand in front of one of those “Vox
Pop” TV boxes that some TV stations have on the street, and speak
your peace, holding your sign.
30. Print 100 copies of one of the posters listed above, and give them away to your friends
and colleagues.
