In Tulsa, some want the nation's leaders to give peace a chance. The Tulsa Peace Fellowship hosted a "peace-nik" to protest the possibility of war with Iraq. It started with a picnic and music from local bands at All Souls Unitarian Church..

An Iraqi-American and a local minister spoke, then the group marched down Peoria. Protestor Devin Venable says the rally gave him a chance to voice his opinion.

Devin Venable, protestor: "I don't really feel that my voice is being heard in congress or in the administration.. I don't think that very many persons from either party are standing up against this war, and I think there are alot of questions that need to be answered before we go to war."

The Tulsa Peace Fellowship is now holding three weekly vigils.
