The story of César López will be the first of
my stories basically because he’s my friend and I really admire his absolute
dedication to the cause. He’s a 40-year old musician who is one of the most
intense activists seeking ways on how to eradicate the violence that has
plagued our country Colombia for more than 50 years.
His contribution to peace in our Country is
huge. He has dedicated the last 10 years of his life on delivering music
through his “Escopetarras”, which are decommissioned AK-47s converted
into guitars. But
this is not all, he also created the 24-0 initiative (Twenty four hours with
zero violent deaths) which is held in October every year in Colombia, and it’s
expanding all over Latin America now.
Here are some videos with his story:
