#1 Completare la petitie2013-03-15 22:20 Great artist Joan Baez was actively involved in the great problems of mankind. The first place is of course subject to PACE. His song "We Shall Overcome / We shall overcome" best expresses his belief younger generation. At the cost of lives cut short prematurely "great bodies of American democracy" by marches and protests by hundreds of thousands of people that stopped the Vietnam war generation which, unfortunately, were massacred millions of Vietnamese. Of course by using a technique supersofisticată the U.S. military who have missed bombardment aviation including chemical bombs tested first without remorse, human beings. U.S. officials did everything to hide its human losses. But after a few years that generation discovers lying government that hid hundreds of thousands of victims, when antiwar marches major trigger that particularly stands and Joan Baez. Joan Baez has a heart that embraced all mankind. Songs of famous artists have spring in the mountains of aspirations but also suffering human planetary highest peaks unfortunately appeared (out of nowhere or fog) in the last century. Large contribution to world peace artist can not measure one. I think without sacrificing Joan Baez and her younger generation would have been millions of lives cut short in a few years. It's combatants who defend their country, children women, men, old or young all the territory attacked and devastated by bombs including chemicals but also combatants who were inoculated to fight for democracy, etc. But that generation has moved some peoples consciousness of peace. Unfortunately most people agree to be governed by arrogants or servants leaders who participate in policy and harmful invisible planet. I believe, from the Nobel Peace Prizewinners 40 years list, Joan Baez missing. Committee in Norway dealing with one category (PACE, the other dealing Sweden) Nobel prize would be indifferent to sacrifice for peace (and thus for nonviolent) made by Joan Baez and her generation. |

#42013-03-27 19:22Joan Baez has ceaselessly been the embodiment of Peace Movement throughout her life. She has gone everywhere that Peace was an option. Certainly that can hardly be said for Nobel Prize recipient predecessors. It seems highly fitting that the Peace Prize by given to a lifelong practitioner and advocate for Peace. |

#52013-11-04 23:21NOT giving the peace prize to Joan Baez says more about the Norwegian Peace prize commettee, than it says about the peace work of Joan Baez. |

#132015-07-22 15:25It was through listening to Joan that I was introduced many years ago, as a young teenager, to the concept of non- violence. I totally admire Joan for her lifelong commitment to human rights, non- violence and peaceful resistance to war. She truly deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. |

#162015-07-22 23:06Because she has done more for peace than the peace prize winner sitting in the white house killing people every day by using cowardly drones |

#182015-07-23 13:01Freedom of speech means a lot to me...and she was not alone. At Penn State, students lined up to hear her the night before she came to speak. I joined her in London in the spring of '65 when she filled Trafalgar Square with people who wanted to hear her words again. She has never stopped. She has made us all think, worldwide, of an alternate world within our grasp. |

#202016-11-06 07:37S'il y une personne sur cette terre qui mérite le Nobel de la Paix, c'est Mme Baez. Cette grande dame a consacré sa vie entière à la non-violence, à la paix, à la décence humaine et à la compassion. Si nous vivons encore dans un monde rempli de violence et de haine, c'est qu'il y a trop peu de personnes qui ont des convictions aussi fortes et inébranlables que la sienne. |
