This is the Hudson Mohawk Magazine's holiday special on peace, produced and hosted by Mark Dunlea.

We start with a local effort to promote nonviolence in the Lansingburgh area of Troy with Deyva Arthur’s Beacon for Peace.

Then, we hear from an Albany protest against Israel’s invasion of Lebanon. Next was a protest at the Watervliet Arsenal about the US providing weapons to Israel.

We then hear from former HMM correspondent Brendan Dunn about his trip to the West Bank.

We conclude with a spring time rally organized by the Muslim Community at the State Capitol. By Mark Dunlea
