During the summer of 2017, Jackie was an activist and canvasser for a company called Grassroots Campaigns and helped to raise money for organizations such as ACLU, Planned Parenthood, and Doctors Without Borders in New Orleans, Louisiana. When she heard about the opportunity to assist with efforts at the Bertha von Suttner Peace Institute in The Hague, and Peace Museum Vienna, she knew she had to contribute.

Jackie was very glad to assist with the celebrations surrounding the 175th anniversary of Bertha von Suttner at the historic Peace Palace in The Hague this past June. She is also eager to help with the Windows for Peace project in Vienna, which highlights a variety of activists and peace heroes to educate any and all who walk by the museum.

“Peace to me means society is in a state of nonviolence due to ongoing harmony of the community. This state can only be reached if the community comes together and sees everyone as beings who matter and have a positive role in society.”

“Peace is something which stretches far beyond the absence of violence and the development of government policies. For me, peace is something that everyone can influence, every day. It starts at the individual level. From there, it ripples into communities, cultures, and societies, creating a blueprint for real change and authentic harmony. Language learning opens your world, your perspectives, all whilst offering the possibility for empathy, connection, and insight. For this reason, I believe If everyone could just learn one new language, we would see more tolerance, acceptance, intercultural understanding, and ultimately, more peace. Languages give you gateways into cultivating peace that would simply be impenetrable in a monolingual capacity.”
