Dwight Scarbrough;
Colin and Ciarran Burch
Peacemakers

Colin and Ciarran have served on the IPC Spokes Council for the past two years and attended virtually every event we’ve hosted. They have tabled and leafletted many times and organized street protests, our poetry reading and many other actions. The IPC is much stronger because of their dedication.

Dwight took the initiative to establish an Idaho chapter of Veterans for Peace many years ago and he has spearheaded their efforts to resist the War on Terror and promote a new foreign policy direction. Dwight has spent thousands of hours building the Vets for Peace community, preparing materials, tabling, and protesting, and he is one of the most well-read peace activists around. Thanks Dwight!
