San Francisco Bay Area Youth Create Video Inspired By Tutu Peace Program

Peacemaker Museum, which is currently offering programing to schools in the Bay Area, is pleased to see this type of engagement by local youth and look forward to much more:

The Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation (DTPF) announced today the release of the song and music video “Peace3”, which is the result of a collaboration between the Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation and Bay Area youth non-profit NegusWorld. The song is the first in a series of collaborations between the Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation and youth organizations across the United States in support of their #Peace3 initiative. The mission of #Peace3 is to be a catalyst for global peace by creating a world in which everyone values human dignity and embraces our essential interconnectedness – using Desmond Tutu’s life and teachings to inspire young people to build a world of peace within, peace between people and peace among nations. The project also aims to inspire one million young adults, aged 17-22, to learn and engage in peacebuilding as their life’s work. “When we launched the #Peace3 program, the idea was to inspire young people to take action. The youth of NegusWorld came to us inspired by the idea of peace within, peace between and peace among and asked us if they could write a song about it,” said Brian Rusch, Executive Director of the Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation. “They perfectly captured the essence of the program while simultaneously creating an anthem of peace for their generation.” “Peace3” was written by Johwell St-Cilien and written and performed by youth artists Stoney Creation (Peace Within), Jada Imani (Peace Between) and Maleik Dion (Peace Among), and produced by Edson Sean.

Peace within, peace between, peace among - Peace3 is the newest campaign launched by the Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation. Represented by NegusWorld youth in Oakland as well as Hip Hop Saves Lives Youth in New York. Peacemaker Museum, which is currently offering programing to schools in the Bay Area, is pleased to see this type of engagement by local youth and look forward to much more.
