At the top is a link to the Center for Citizen's Initiatives website. This organization is about 30 years old. They started visiting Russia and hosting Russian citizens in the United States while it was still the Soviet Union. They have not stopped working for peace and understanding. I am on their mailing list and receive daily reports of their current trip. You can view these reports at the link.
The second event is another effort to bring peace and understanding to the world. I follow several of the speakers listed and will try to view as many lectures as possible.
Hope some of the rest of you will enjoy this information as well.
Cheers!

Right on Marilyn, keep going.
thanks, it's late for me and I shouldn't be talking online but thank you for the sig attribution. I think it's from a farm project I saw somewhere else a long time ago, will look it up tomorrow.
Meanwhile, here's more people doing good things, I hope LaChienHenry sees this too:
Grazing in the Sonoma County Regional Parks for Vegetation Management
I lived in Petaluma so long, I was there when Helen Putman was mayor. It was when Mary Hartman Mary Hartman was popular on TV, so we called her Mayor Putman Mayor Putman. heh Then, decades later I walked in that park named after her almost every day, it has steep climbs and great views.
good day

If you're interested in learning about Russia,
and have a couple of hours to spare, this interview with Vladimir Pozner is worth watching.
It is from a CCI event in May of 2017.

We wanted decent healthcare, a living wage and free college.
The Democrats gave us Biden and war instead.
Oh thank you!
You follow them too? I learned of them at c99, so maybe it was your post.

I'm a fan of CCI, too
...and I've written about them in the past here: Do it Yourself Diplomacy. The program sounds as worthwhile as ever, and I'm glad to see the Russia Hoax hasn't cast a shade on it.
Thanks for posting. I'm having trouble with the second link, but I think that's my browser. Especially if it is working for others.
That's the essay
Where I learned about CCI. Thanks!
I would go if I could. It is important that we share information about their work.
