Sheikh Moussa Drammeh discusses 2011 Peace December Initiative. A year ago, mayor Bloomberg, Bronx borough president Ruben Diaz, Jr and then governor David Patterson declared the month of December as peace month throughout the entire city. This initiative was created out of the urgent need to lower the escalating crime rate in the city most of which was occurring in the Bronx. The force to lower the crime rates in the city and the Bronx has incited communities to come together.
