DESCRIPTION:Speaker Kathy Kelly is a founder of Voices in the Wilderness, which has 
 provided humanitarian aid to Iraq victims of U.S. aggression, for which the 
 U.S. government moved against them legally and financially. She has been 
 nominated three times for the Nobel Peace Prize for her humanitarian 
 work.\n\nKathy co-founded and leads Voices for Creative Nonviolence 
 (vcnv.org), which works with Iraqis --- both within and outside Iraq --- to 
 promote reconciliation and alternatives to violent dispute resolution. For 
 five months last year, she lived among and worked with Iraqi refugees in 
 Amman, Jordan. During that time, she also met with leaders of the Iraq 
 Federation of Oil Unions and General Federation of Workers’ Councils & 
 Unions in Iraq.\n\nReflecting on her participation in a peace walk from 
 Chicago to the RNC in St. Paul, kathy will talk about “war and memory,” 
 drawing parallels with collective resistance to other wars, and reminding 
 us of our connections across regions, national boundaries, and 
 generations.\n\nDavid Smith-Ferri, activist poet, author of "Battlefields 
 without Borders," will open with a reading of his new poems. \n\n$5 - $15 
 (sliding scale) donation requested but no one turned away for lack of 
 funds.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2008/09/17/18539378.php
