Dear Friends:
On behalf of the citizens of Newark, New Jersey, the largest and
most ethnically diverse city in the Garden State, I would like to
convey my best wishes to the participants of the United Nations'
50th Anniversary "Global Peace Walk."
I strongly commend you on your worthwhile efforts to extend the
spirit of justice, unity and, most importantly, peace from shore to
shining shore in America, and all around the world.
As Mayor of a truly rich and diverse community, where people of
various races, ethnicities, nationalities and religions live together,
we salute your efforts to raise the world community's consciousness
on the importance of achieving peace and prosperity for all of
humanity.
May your odyssey of peace from New York to San Francisco serve
as a reminder to treat everyone with the respect and dignity that we
expect for ourselves, as well as a beacon of hope for each and
every American to strive toward.
All the best !
Sincerely yours,
[signed]
Sharpe James
Mayor
