PDA and the Faith Community

Vol. 1, No. 5--December 4, 2004

Progressive Democrats of America demonstrates its commitment to global unity by encouraging organizations and individuals to come together to achieve common goals. Our intention is to build alliances with religious and spiritual institutions to work in harmony toward creating positive and lasting changes. When we work together great things can be achieved.

Progressive Democrats of America is working to provide opportunities for people of faith to work together to reform political structures so that they reflect our shared values of justice, environmental stewardship, global cooperation, peace, protection of civil liberties, and personal authenticity.

As Langston Hughes once wrote:

Give us a peace that will produce great schools--
As the war produced great armament,
A peace that will wipe out our slums--

Give us a peace that will enlist
A mighty army serving human kind,
Not just an army geared to kill,
But trained to help the living mind.

An army trained to shape our common good
And bring about a world of brotherhood.

We are striving to create a coalition that can act as that "mighty army."
