Synopsis:
'WORLD PEACE is a Local Issue' documents how local efforts can impact national issues. The story begins in 1983 showing worldwide actions against the escalation of the nuclear arms race. In a suburban community, 300 people show up, petitioning their City Council to pass a Nuclear Freeze. Their impassioned pleas overcome Council resistance and results in a resolution!
Highlights include statements from Paul Newman, Senators Edward Kennedy and Ed Markey, who introduced the original Freeze Resolution to Congress. Thirty years later, with the issue still relevant, we watch Markey re-introduce similar legislation: the SANE Act (Smarter Approach to Nuclear Expenditures).
