The conference blogging is going slower than I had dreamed, because…
well… instead of sitting in the sessions and writing to you, I have
mostly been helping out in registration. One of those great conference
snafu stories that we will laugh about in a few months… or years…
I have promises from some students to pick up the slack, but with luck I will have more for you this afternoon or tonight.
I did get to go in for the beginning of this morning’s session… because they wanted to introduce the staff… my least favorite part of these things… But it was worth it because I got to be there for the first ever showing of an amazing new video that Paul Chepikian created for us. It is a beautiful compilation of interviews with some of our wonderful peacebuilders talking about this movement we are building together.
Paul put the video on a DVD with some of our other great pieces, including the Kucinich/Cronkite Interview, one of the interviews with Marianne Williamson, the 30 second Stand Up and Be Counted public service announcement with Azim Khamisa and more.
Paul financed this project himself and it was truly a gift. We are selling the DVD at the conference for $20.00. After the conference, we will be making them available through our webstore so keep an eye out for them.
And, of course, Paul is videotaping the sessions at this conference as well, so we will have those DVDs available soon.
