"live without wars"
March 19-21*, 2011
Make time this weekend to be a part of an extraordinary three-day global listening project. The schedule is designed to allow you to join for hours of just minutes. Don’t be intimidated. I have been on past calls and was transformed. The vision is to bring people together, hear and share testimonies, and strengthen our strategies for nonviolent social change.
Here is a link that has the schedule of activities and the call-in numbers to join this inspiring community.
Three full days of dialogue gives you a lot to choose from, here is a detailed schedule.
There will be reports from the international solidarity delegation in Afghanistan, updates from members of Our Journey to Smile, presentations from Afghans for Peace, and moments of silence to commemorate the beginning of the 2003 war in Iraq.
You will hear testimonies from Iraqis working with the Muslim Peacemaker Teams, and updates from peace activists from around the world seeking to end their government’s roles in the wars. These stories, these testimonies, and these lives are why we work to end the wars.
Make time this weekend to be inspired.
Here are some links to the incredible groups that will be featured.
