Melody Moezzi, an attorney and author of "War on Error: Real Stories of American Muslims," will be hooping for peace during the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado. She's inviting everyone to join her in the fun for this vital cause and has started Hula Hoop For Peace. She notes, "World peace may seem unattainable, or even ridiculous, as a practical goal, but attempting it is imperative, especially today. Any attempts toward such lofty ideals must begin at home. Hula-Hoop for Peace (HHP) is such an attempt. ... I am an Iranian-American. I have two homelands: the United States and Iran. I am not half-Iranian. I am not half-American. I am 100% Iranian and 100% American. Thus, peace, particularly between the US and Iran, is not simply a political issue for me: It is deeply personal." Full story: Payvand, HulaHoopForPeace.com
