On May 27, 2003, Bil Durston organized a Vision for Peace Rally in a park near his home in Gold River, in the suburban area east of Sacramento. This rally dealt with the right to freedom of expression: To display the United Nations flag, to express support for the United Nations and its objectives, achievement of world peace through international cooperation.
This short photoessay collects a few images from that event.

Bill Durston, a member of Physicians for Social Responsibility, had displayed the United Nations flag at his home for several months before this rally. Through this flag he has expressed support for maintaining world peace by peaceful means, and particularly through international cooperation and the United Nations. This is in contrast to the Bush administration's choice for war in Iraq.
