Ryan Parker our third Peace Center of Connecticut Peace Heroes Legacy Hall Inductee Ryan Parker, is a teacher, poet and an infectiously happy person. Gifted with humility, Ryan said, “…being honored as a Peace Hero of Connecticut for 2020, it’s not about me, it’s all about “WE”.
He attributes all the work he does to the greatness of his ancestors who paved the path, indigenous peoples who are responsible for enriching the ground on which that path winds, and to the youth that he is privileged to serve who motivate him to continue paving the path.
We all will one day be someone’s ancestor.” Ryan uses his poetic words and actions to create a peaceful community by addressing injustices.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Ryan’s Story.
