Veterans For Peace - Western North Carolina is excited to invite you to
the first of our quarterly symposiums intended to educate and promote
action associated with issues that impact our ability to achieve peace
in our world. There are so many such issues that it should be obvious that
not just “peace people” are invited, but all who yearn for the just peace
that underpins genuine peace and all those who want to know and do more.
Each symposium will focus on just one main topic of concern with video,
readings, discussion and action planning, but there will be more to each
symposium than that.
Our main topic for the first symposium is titled,
"The Monroe Doctrine, Revisited: How 200 Years of U.S. Policy Have Helped
to Destabilize the Americas.”
Beyond the focus of our main topic we intend to include time for broadening
and deepening our community’s lived commitment to achieving peace
through reporting on our actions, results, plans, and celebrating all that
makes our corner of the world a place that nurtures a peace that catches
on well beyond our beautiful mountains.
Throughout the rest of 2023 at each symposium we will be celebrating
ourselves, Veterans For Peace Chapter 099, in observance of
our 20th anniversary in existence… and we will do that with CAKE!
Please join us, bring anyone you want to enjoy a world at peace with,
and spread the word about this. Any questions, please let me know.
Any assistance you’d like to offer is appreciated.
