How can we join hands and hearts to transcend violence and build a culture of peace?

In response to a deeply embedded culture of violence that’s infiltrated every level of society - politics, economics, and even religion, The D.L. Dykes Jr. Foundation has adopted a new organizing framework aimed at restoration, inclusivity, and harmony.

We aspire to join work already happening, and invite individuals and organizations to join with us in building a culture of peace.

We hope through this movement to:

CONNECT with groups, organizations, and individuals that already resonate with the need to build a durable culture of peace.

CONVENE conversations, both online and in-person, that help broaden and deepen this dialogue.

CONTRIBUTE needed intellectual and theological depth to this entire enterprise, using every available learning medium.

CATALYZE significant events that embody the culture of peace in action (public demonstrations of conscience) in concert with others.
