JULIA'S VOICE

 


JULIA'S VOICE IS THE MODERN VOICE OF JULIA WARD HOWE. STAND FOR PEACE IS OUR
MOTHERS DAY EVENT.

Julia is distraught over the the state of civil discourse in the United States. 

She once again fears for her children and for peace in the land she loves.

If you are interested in organizing a Stand for Peace in your location on
Mother's Day, May 13, 2018 please contact us. Online organizing will begin in
January 2018.




Over one hundred forty years ago, Julia Ward Howe, activist,
Unitarian, suffragette and mother of six, called mothers to action by
proclaiming the first Mother’s Day. 

It was a day to stand for peace and against war. 



Each Mother's Day at 3:00 we assemble across the nation
to reclaim the Mother’s Day holiday as a day
to stand for peace and against war.

Explore here to learn how YOU and your group can get involved!






Mother's Day was first organized in 1870 by the abolitionist, suffragette and
poet Julia Ward Howe to promote peace and speak out against war. 

Julia's Voice is a group of "mothers and others" working to Take Back Mothers
Day and honor Jullia Ward Howe.  

We know that Mothers value peace most.

To reclaim our holiday, we sponsor Mothers Day Stand for Peace events and
support others as they sponsor peace events in their own communties.  Explore
our website!  You'll find photos of our events, tools to help you plan your
own Stand for Peace event and more information about Julia Ward Howe, the
extraordinary woman who started it all.

Mother and daughter Stand for Peace

Why Promote Peace on Mothers Day?

After living through the horrors of the Civil War, Julia Ward Howe saw signs
that another war was brewing as the Franco-Prussian conflict threatened to
escalate into a full scale war.  Tired of war and armed with the celebrity that
came to her after her famous poem The Battle Hymn of the Republic was published
in 1862, she called upon women to speak out against this new war.

We honor
Julia Ward Howe
and
her work for peace. 



"Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn all that we have taught them of
charity, mercy and patience".

Julia Ward Howe, 1870
