Proposing a Bold New Global Peace Movement Led by Women

The November 2021 episode of “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” proposes a bold, new worldwide peace movement – and it will be much more successful if women lead it.

The world is stuck in violence, militarism, systemic injustices, and ecocide.  The status quo is dominated by top-down systems of war and other kinds of injustices.  Wars do not work.  Nuclear war could instantly destroy us all.  Instead of top-down dysfunction, the world needs a very bold grassroots movement grounded in profound nonviolence.  The movement can succeed, especially if women to lead it on behalf of children and all of humanity.

Glen interviewed Andre Sheldon, who lives in Boston, about Andre’s proposal for a bold, new global movement to abolish war, with women leading this movement.  He is reaching out widely to invite many kinds of people to join together for this. The movement is grounded in nonviolence and would create a peaceful world for children everywhere.  This is a very positive, exciting proposal with much potential.
