World Citizenship — See fascinating information here

The April 2022 interview on “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” provides fresh insights and a creative alternative that can get the whole world unstuck from nationalistic antagonisms and endless wars.

Wars have raged for thousands of years of wars, but they have never produced lasting peace.  The promoters of World War I promised that it would be “the war to end all wars.”  Have we had a century of peace since 1918?

When we are chronically stuck in a dysfunctional system, we need to challenge the long-standing assumptions.  We need to think creatively – “think outside the box” – and choose positive alternatives.

Instead of narrow nationalism and wars, two guests and some visuals help us explore the exciting alternative:  world citizenship.

Glen welcomed Arthur Kanegis and Melanie Bennett.  Both guests have studied this extensively and produced a feature film promoting it.
