Distinguished Peace Leadership Award to Glenn Paige

The Nuclear Age Peace Foundation honored CGNK’s Founder and Governing Council Chair Glenn D. Paige with the Foundation’s Distinguished Peace Leadership Award. The award ceremony gathered over 250 people during the 27th Annual Evening for Peace, held at Santa Barbara, CA, on October 29, also honoring Reverend James Lawson, mentor to Martin Luther King, Jr.

Paige’s keynote speech “The Nonkilling Idea Can Lead,” now available at the The Foundation’s website, stressed the importance of seeking a “killing-free world achieved by global diffusion of a strong nonkilling ethic combined with global citizen understanding of ways and means to bring it about.”
