The Convergence — Humanity's Moment of Choice: Choosing Peace

There has been nothing more elusive in our human history than peace, although it is the most desired element in human life. Cycles of war and violence seem to repeat with each generation. How can we meet this challenge with vision and hope? It’s time for champions of peace—at personal and collective levels—to share their hearts, and share their visions. In this VoiceAmerica Special -- “HUMANITY’S MOMENT OF CHOICE: CHOOSING PEACE”-- from the Evolutionary Leaders Circle, peace champions from activist, arts and media communities, and the policy-making world, gather to confront this challenging time—with vision, and with hope. They also identify informative and inspiring on-line peace-related programming that will be free to the public through 2022. The Evolutionary Leaders Circle, who are authors of the recent multi award-winning book OUR MOMENT OF CHOICE: EVOLUTIONARY VISIONS AND HOPE FOR THE FUTURE, share from two of their peace-related initiatives: the Unity & Peace Circle (with leaders from Unity Earth, World Unity Week and the National Peace Academy) and the Unitive Justice and Global Security Circle (with leaders from the Global Security Institute, The International Academy for Multicultural Cooperation, the Whole-World View, and Global Unitive Healing, among others). Guests Jonathan Granoff, Audrey E. Kitagawa, Dot Maver, Ben Bowler, Jon Ramer, Elena Mustakova, Jude Currivan and others, speak about informative and inspiring programs ongoing through 2022 that can help uplift your life and guide the desire we all share for personal and collective peace.
