Conscientious objection is not passive. It is an active and deliberate engagement with one of the most serious questions a person can face: Would I participate in organized killing if my government told me to? If the answer is no, build the evidence for that answer now.
Over 50 youth & community members gathered at Stony Run Friends Meeting in Baltimore City to learn how to document their beliefs as conscientious objectors to war. Learn more about the event at https://stonyrunfriends.org/blog-conscientious-objection-the-selective-service-system-training/
For youth conscientious objectors, and those who support them, please visit Stony Run’s webpage on conscientious objection, and share our highly actionable, one-page leaflet: "Registering With The Selective Service System As A Conscientious Objector To War." (https://stonyrunfriends.org/co/)
