Hello AWARE people,<br>
<br>
Is AWARE willing to sign on as a co-sponsor to this event, with <b>Kathy
Kelly speaking on July 9th at Channing-Murray</b>? I think Ron
Szoke may have raised it at tonight's meeting - thank you, Ron! -
and this should give more detail about what's up.<br>
<br>
The event is being organized by the <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__ecojusticecollaborative.org_&d=CwMDaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=tfHzwZBcTLEveiewRiq0OdhFmfRmlvZjpIBS0AUJ2v0&m=Il4ddbhJEPpO50mXiNhfrt_jZd7uidCpAfG4A9qw5LQ&s=GVUH2SU0R7jeoZXxexP4FYhCYGlNp3jpvJ5NXkZIh3c&e=">Eco-Justice
Collaborative</a>, Pam and Lan Richart. If we agree to
co-sponsor, they'll list AWARE as such on their flyer, and we'd
agree to help promote the event.<br>
<br>
(I think this would be a great thing to do - hope the discussion
was/is positive! - Stuart)<br>
<br>
Is anyone interested in discussing what else we can do around Kathy
Kelly's appearance, as they suggest below?<br>
<br>
Also, would the Green Party be interested in co-sponsoring too?
The family of issues she's raising would be a natural fit for the
Greens.<br>
<br>
<br>
Pam and Lan write:<br>
<blockquote>Kathy will be speaking about her work with the Afghan
Youth Peace Volunteers and the #Enough! GEN multi-generational
movement of ordinary people who say #Enough! to the interconnected
global crises of global warming, socioeconomic inequalities and
violence with its nuclear-risk wars, by nurturing a critical mass
of GEN ( Green, Equal and Nonviolent ) relationships and
alternatives.<br>
<br>
By saying #Enough! to the crises, the people of #Enough! GEN are
affirming the value of love for the Earth and all of humanity, and
liberating themselves from the grip of various abuses of money and
power, including liberating themselves from fossil fuels and wars,
income inequality and elitism, corporatization and militarism,
class warfare and racism etc.<br>
<br>
As people from different regions respond freely, the Afghan Peace
Volunteers will try to organize a Skype/Zoom conversation by
region or continent, in order to listen, to encourage, to imagine,
to relate through conversations focused on GEN alternatives.<br>
<br>
This may have wide local appeal and potentially bring together
folks working on issues that should be connected. Lots of
possibilities here. Would some AWARE folks be interested in
getting together to discuss how we might build on Kathy’s
appearance? We want to generate personal and financial support for
Voices, but we might also want to think about what fruit this
might bear after she visits.
