His new book Warheads to Windmills says that to survive as a species we need to work together to solve the greatest problems facing us right now. Those include the climate crisis, the nuclear nightmare and the time-bomb of global inequality and injustice.

He shows, in detail, how we can solve each of these life-threatening emergencies!

Dr. Timmon Wallis is Executive Director of NuclearBan.US and coordinator of the national Warheads to Windmills Coalition.

He is truly a Solutionary -- with a BA in Human Ecology and a PhD in Peace Studies. His earlier book, Disarming the Nuclear Argument, contributed to the negotiations which led to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons -- which earned ICAN its Nobel Peace Prize in 2017.

In our movie "The World Is My Country", Garry Davis calls for creating a synergistic system of People-Powered governance that can enable humans to free ourselves from the scourge of war and oppression and recognize that we are already One!

The Holomovement has a similar aim, so in this action session we will learn about Holons from Emannuel Kuntzelman, Mariko Pitts and Yasmine El Baggari -- and then take action -- working to syntegrate and create a Holon together!

In Celebration of World Citizen Action Week -- the 76th anniversary of when Garry Davis became a World Citizen -- we’ll discuss Will Reed’s future memoir, PINBALLED, the story of a free-thinking, nonconformist's lifelong fight for what always eluded him – a place to live and call home. A soldier during the bloodiest part of the Vietnam War in 1968, Will returned to Vietnam as an independent journalist – exchanging his combat boots for pen, paper, and a camera. Determined to expose the graft and human rights abuses he had witnessed, his investigation landed him in a rat-infested Vietnamese prison. “Being in a dank, fetid South Vietnamese jail, held without charges, all I could think of was getting out”, Will says in his memoir. “Hours after my release, outraged by my own government’s treatment of me and its contempt for the Vietnamese people, I renounced my U.S. citizenship.” Facing further incarceration, he fled overland through Khmer Rouge-controlled Cambodia before sneaking into Thailand where he was jailed for illegal entry. “As I pleaded unsuccessfully for asylum, my unusual case became a cause célèbre – attracting international press attention and letters from supporters worldwide.” Finally, with the help of World Citizen Garry Davis, he was delivered a World passport in jail and was eventually granted asylum in France. Today, he is retired and living in Paris. Check out his INDIEGOGO CAMPAIGN!

How did we get from the terrible 2020s to here?

Suzanne Taylor created an essay contest to answer that question and people shifted from being overwhelmed by doom and gloom to excitement about humanity’s future! Join us in talking with Suzanne about the wealth of ideas generated by her contest -- and where we can go from here.

Suzanne was a painter and an actress – her many TV credits include The Dick Van Dyke Show (she played Van Dyke’s secretary in the feature film, Divorce American Style), I Dream of Jeannie, and My Favorite Martian.

In the 1970s, she turned all her attention to the world problematique. She’s made wonderful contributions since then, including two feature documentaries about crop circles: What on Earth? Inside the Crop Circle Mystery and CROP CIRCLES: Quest for Truth, as well as doing 36 episodes of The Cosmic Fuel Pump, for “how I get sane in a crazy world,” on local Los Angeles TV.

On her current platform, NOW WHAT?, where the essay contest came from, she is urging a massive coalition of we-the-people to become the force we could be.
