I warmly applause and congratulate this little American boy, Trevor for his initiative to spread peace around the world. I think that using electronic communication media, Internet (YouTube, Facebook…) to gather people was a clever and very winning idea. In fact, the citizen Journalism which is made possible by social media (blogs, Wikis, YouTube) can contribute to a convergence of cultures.Trevor has been courageous and successful in assembling near to 6000 people to participate in the drawing of the peace sign in the Ithaca’s festival. The use of internet had allowed Trevor to reach the maximum people possible in order to break the record. Reaching and getting thousands of people together for the same cause and purpose, spread of peace, is not an easy task. Furthermore, spreading peace is harder, especially in our time since we are living in a world synonym of War, Terrorism, Death, Power, and Murder… This shows that what cannot or couldn’t be achieved by rulers or political people maintaining power and having authority all over the world, could be achieved by “normal” people; in this case, the amazing Trevor who is only 16 years-old. Great Job Trevor!! :):)
