Exploring the spiritual origin and evolution of the "American Promise" with a Native American elder, scholar and Peacemaker, an author and a futurist.
Join us for an eagle's look at the evolution of consciousness as manifested through a promise made to the world by a yet-to-be great nation. The origin story of a nation is key for its future. A new perspective presents a revolutionary look at the syntheses between Europeans and Native Americans in the evolution of the American democracy, mind and spirit. The US of A began with gratitude and peace. It's up to each of US to realize the promise we made to the world of liberty, justice, equality and abundance for all. This involves humanity's evolution to a society at the vibratory level where we each act "according to our conscience" - our direct connection to the divine - and bring a world-in-balance to pass on Earth.
An extraordinary exception to the human condition unfolded when the visionary leaders of two radically different cultures met and worked together to maintain an inter-cultural exchange that became the "First Great Synthesis” between Europeans and Native Americans during the first fifty-four years at Plymouth Plantation. This melding gave birth to American democracy and to the American mind and spirit. The "Second Great Synthesis” occurred when aspects of The Great Law of the Iroquois were integrated into the United States Constitution in 1787. A third synthesis is occurring now as the leading-edge science shows us the Oneness of Creation and we heal and open our hearts to our Pan-Indigenousness and come together again and humanity realizes the great promise America made to the world in its freedom documents the Mayflower Compact, the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution: The True American Dream - Liberty, Justice, Equality and Abundance for all.

Andrew Cameron Bailey is a "latter-day pilgrim.” He sailed across the Atlantic and arrived in America on Thanksgiving Day, 1969. He was born in England and grew up in South Africa amongst the Zulus, holds degrees in science, literature and social anthropology, and was a chemistry professor before emigrating to the United States. After meeting Connie in 2003 he became disturbed at the level of mis-information in the American psyche surrounding the early years of New England. Andrew is the author of the 21st Century historical mystery novel “The Mayflower Revelations,” that corrects the historical record in an entertaining and inspiring way. He is director of the film “SEEDS OF FREEDOM: A Vision for America” which presents a revolutionary look at the syntheses between Europeans and Native Americans in the evolution of the American mind, spirit and democracy.

Betty Booth Donohue, a member of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, holds a doctorate from the University of California, Los Angeles in English Literature. She is the author of Bradford’s Indian Book: Being the True Roote & Rise of American Letters as Revealed by the Native Text Embedded in Of Plimoth Plantation. Donohue is also a descendant of Francis Cooke, a Mayflower passenger who lived across the lane from William Bradford, Plimoth’s second governor. Her book brings to light the similarities between the Saints or the “Pilgrims” as they are more generally known and the Indigenous People who inhabited the Patuxet area where the English chose to settle. She discusses at some length the accommodations made by each group as they negotiated a lifeway that endured for a half century.

Connie Baxter Marlow is an author, photographer, filmmaker and futurist. She is a descendant of Mayflower Pilgrim Separatists John Alden and Priscilla Mullins who are known as America's First Couple. Her great-great-grandfather James Phinney Baxter, a preeminent historian of early New England, sought to honor “the early settlers of New England whose principles and ideals were the seed of free government.” Connie brings a unique perspective to her ancestors’ dreams for humanity in that she has spent 30 years in close association with visionary Native American elders throughout the United States and Mexico which has enabled her to see the spiritual alignment between the Pilgrim Separatists and the Native Americans and the syntheses between them and the Europeans in the origin and evolution of the American mind, spirit and democracy. She and her husband Andrew Cameron Bailey have The First Fifty Years Project creating books, films and forums for the dissemination of this inspiring point of view, with lectures throughout the country and on Zoom over the decades.
