During the mid-1960s, the New YorkFifth Avenue Vietnam Peace Parade Committee coordinated anti-war parades which involved perhaps hundreds of organizations.
Peace is lacking on the modern highway because people race with each other as though being ahead of the other guy is as necessary as breathing.
The great majority of rebaptizers were peaceful, constructive, and in some ways nearly ascetic, but due to their social origin and radical emotionalism, they were regarded as extremists, dangerous, and threats to civility.
In order to promote a stronger awareness of the need for peace, On Earth Peace Assembly was founded in 1974 by M.R. Zigler to focus Church of the Brethren members on the peace issue and convey a distinct anti-war message, especially in the wake of the United States military involvement in Vietnam.
The committee was initially concerned with the escalating nuclear arms race, although later it would become involved in issues such as the Vietnam anti-war movement.
In September 1965, the FifthAvenueVietnamPeaceParadeCommittee was formed, with SANE being one of the participating groups.
SANE participated in the November 15, 1969 protest against the Vietnam war in Washington, DC, which was the largest protest against the Vietnam war.
