US and NATO troops and weaponry are now on the ground in Ukraine fighting against the Russians. The Russians have deployed tactical nukes in Belarus to counter US tactical nukes in Belgium, Germany, Holland, Italy and Turkey and an escalating troop and weapon strength throughout eastern Europe. This puts the two superpowers in direct military conflict with the possibility of nuclear weapons escalating day by day. Never before in our lifetimes has the world situation been more dangerous. During this five day program, we will be exploring what lessons can be learned from previous attempts to get the US and Russia to negotiate their differences, what the current status of the war is, the nature of US imperialism, the pathway to negotiation, and what the peace movement can do to bring about a ceasefire and diplomacy.
This Summit is being co-sponsored with Code Pink, a feminist grassroots organization working to end U.S. warfare and imperialism, support peace and human rights initiatives, and redirect resources into healthcare, education, green jobs and other life-affirming programs.
