MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR
Disarmament Week is celebrated from October 24 to 30 each year.
Disarmament Week seeks to promote awareness and better understanding of disarmament issues and their cross-cutting importance. Starting on 24 October, the anniversary of the founding of the United Nations, the week-long annual observance was first called for in the Final Document of the General Assembly’s 1978 special session on disarmament (resolution S-10/2). In 1995, the General Assembly invited governments, as well as NGOs, to continue taking an active part in Disarmament Week (resolution 50/72 B, 12 December 1995) in order to promote a better understanding among the public of disarmament issues.
Measures for disarmament are pursued for many reasons, including to maintain international peace and security, uphold the principles of humanity, protect civilians, promote sustainable development, foster confidence and trust among States, and prevent and end armed conflict.
The current conflicts are affecting us all directly. Because of that, we believe it is important to bring some attention to topics like this. We want all of our brothers and sisters to be safe & in a peaceful world. 👊🏼⭐️🤍🕊🌍
We wanted to share the "Knotted Gun" sculpture, at UN HQ in NYC, as it is an inspirational symbol about the pursuit of peace. This amazing sculpture called Non-Violence is a bronze sculpture by Swedish sculpture artist Carl Fredrik Reuterswärd of a knotted gun sitting outside the U.N. Headquarters.
The sculpture features a .357 Magnum revolver with its barrel tied in a knot and was made by Reuterswärdin response to the shooting death of John Lennon in 1980.
There are currently 17 copies of the sculpture around the world and this one was given to the UN by the government of Luxembourg in 1988.
Here at the Mr. Chill & Mr. Fluffy company we believe that love is the answer: MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR!
Say no to violence!
We love you brothers and sisters,
👊🏻⭐️💙
