How One Town Responded to the War in Iraq
by Olga Bonfiglio
review by M. Meyer
A first-person, journalistic account of how ordinary small city (Kalamazoo) Americans tried and continue to stand for peace and a more just society amid the taunts and intimidations of their fellow citizens. This personal account of the war in Iraq and how a group of people in Kalamazoo reacted takes place from January 2003 to June 30, 2004(the day of the U.S. handover of Iraq).
