In October of 1921, Catharine Amy Dawson Scott founded the first worldwide association of writers known simply as P.E.N. In her mind's eye it was an organization of friendship, of comradeship, of acceptance and of inclusion. It became one of the first groups to forcefully advocate for human rights. In 1949, P.E.N. was recognized as "representative of the writers of the world" and received the honour of "consultative status" to the United Nations. Dawson Scott declared that while she conceived of the name P.E.N. with the intention it represented - she felt that the alternative rendering of P.E.N., relayed to her by the French writer, Paul Geraldy, to mean "Paix Entre Nous" was "infinitely better." As it translates rather directly to mean "Peace Between Us" or alternatively "Peace Amongst Us," it does seem, as Dawson Scott recognized, to represent the ideals PEN America of what began almost 100 years ago and continues to be searingly relevant today.
