Join our Smart Toys Campaign. More info
Children need smart toys, not war, toys. The Granny Peace Brigade takes this message to Target in Brooklyn for a grass-roots, granny-powered consumer education project. A U.S. Army veteran with a 4-year-old son tells of his concern that he will be unable to counteract the messages of war directed at his son by movies, television and our government.)
