The 23rd Kateri Tekakwitha Peace Conference

Kateri Peace Conference 2021 - Code Red Planet

Saturday, September 18, 2021. 9 AM - 2 PM

No doubt. The historical moment lends itself to apocalyptic thinking and imagery. Increasingly, the pounding hoof beats of the Four Horseman sound louder and closer, more real than allegorical.

Militarism, so thoroughly embraced, embedded and normalized permeates our consciousness, robs us of resources, devastates the climate and threatens our future. That the Doomsday Clock (ticking) stands seconds to midnight, marks the realistic fears ( coupled with catastrophic climate change) we are almost guaranteed a pending holocaust. The endless planetary wars and their victim’s echoing cries of suffering resound even as new killing technologies are developed and embraced which enable this untold suffering.

Clearly, we are in existential crisis. What is our response? To create a new paradigm, with four new horseman who ride to affirm Love, Truth, Life and Health. Our very survival as a species demands we evolve.
