On April 13, the U.S. dropped the largest non-nuclear bomb in history on a remote and yet still populated area of Afghanistan. To make real to ourselves what may feel like one more news story, and to acknowledge the consequences of war and weapons on mothers and their children in other parts of our mother earth, we will walk on Mother's Day Sunday, May 14 2-5 tracing the size of that crater. This will be a six mile walk around the circumference of the "blast site" sketched over Rochester, starting at Gandhi Institute. We will walk starting around 2 p.m. and conclude by 5 pm, rain or shine. Strollers and bikes are welcome. Walkers are welcome to walk in silence or to participate in facilitated dialogue with family, friends and strangers as part of the journey.
