Living Right Relationship with God, Self
and Others
As
Daughters of Wisdom, we are committed to the Justice of Wisdom, which
calls us both to announce the good news of God’s
reign and to denounce unjust systems and structures which work against
the coming of that reign.

Close the School of the Americas
The School of the Americas (SOA) trains Latin American soldiers in
combat, counter-insurgency, and counter-narcotics. Graduates of the
SOA are responsible
for some of the worst
human right abuses in Latin America.
Daughters of Wisdom have come to Ft. Benning, Georgia
over the past five years to give witness to the terrible abuse of human
rights perpetrated by graduates of
the SOA. We will continue to stand at the gates of the SOA in solidarity with
thousands of others until this "school" of terror is closed.

Join us in partnership with these and other groups
working for justice.
