In the interest of peace and understanding our world and current events, I suggest that EVERYONE reads these books. There is the original edition (1995) and the new edition (2007). Loewen is an avid historian and reviewer of history textbooks. His notes and sources are impeccable in providing verifications and understanding. I discovered his books by accident (via a source in another history book) and since then I've learned Loewen and his books have a huge following. I would like to connect… Continue
Hello, I am a person who works to promote peace in any small way I can and I strongly believe that all of us must first work to understand others, not judge them. Who among us can know what another feels or what they have experienced and even if we have the same experience we cannot assume that we all respond the same way in any experience. Compassion and empathy go a long way towards peace. Try a small gesture of peace and empathy everyday and notice the change it brings about, almost… Continue

Today we all live in the Gaza Strip

Gone

In every moment and with each breath we take we have choice. We can witness the beauty, grandness and perfection that always surround us, or we can identify with a perception that somehow things are not as they should be. Either way, we get to make the distinction personally. Such…
Of all the mistakes you could possibly make on January 1st, there's one that stands head-and-shoulders above the rest.
Make this one single mistake, and this one mistake alone, come January 1st, and you can pretty much "write-off" the rest of the year.
Pardon or Commutation for Leonard
President Obama should pardon or commute the sentence of Leonard Peltier as a gesture toward improving relations with Native Americans and all the diverse groups that now populate this country, in preparation for a resolution of longstanding conflicts that hinder the realization of our collective potential.
Leonard Peltier was convicted of being a participant in an insurrection in which two FBI agents were… Continue
As we're approaching the New Year, we're filled with Gratitude for the Media movement we've all been Co-Creating. We know, that by using all forms of Media, we can raise the collective consciousness of humanity and break the destructive cycles on our planet.There are those who are addicted to extreme violence, and they're so afraid of being powerless that they're blind to the "eye for an eye" cycle that they're a part of. Yet, there are also those who have… Continue
As humanity grows, problems within itself arises. It is the inevitable bullet of evolution. Change will always be present at humanity's next step. How the change is accepted and handled will promote either better change or for the worse. As sicknesses and diseases exists in our lives, medicine and the technologies respective to it will be invented, reinvented, or dismissed. As our everyday lives through the past generations grow with these technologies, humanity's dependability to them cause a… Continue

Fifty-four years ago to the day, a young Jewish boy from a small town in the Carpathian Mountains woke up, not far from Goethe's beloved Weimar, in a place of eternal infamy called Buchenwald. He was finally free, but there was no joy in his heart. He thought there never would be again. Liberated a day earlier by American soldiers, he remembers their rage at what they saw. And even if he lives to be a very old man, he will always be grateful to them for that rage, and also for their compassion.… Continue

The Ocean is one. Just one lonely body. And everybody loves him. They admire him and they smile with him. But they don’t know him. And no one knows him.
The Ocean is sad. Because he used to be, once was, love. A beautiful love, with a beautiful creature of light. A body of warmth and brilliance just equal to what his had once been. And together they were everything, held everything.
