In Brunswick, Maine on Sunday, August 13 from 4:00-6:00 pm. Event will be held inside the Brunswick Library (23 Pleasant Street).
Koohan getting rave reviews on her current national speaking tour linking space, land, air and ocean militarization to latest Pentagon planning.
According to the Doomsday Clock, the time is 90 seconds to midnight — the closest humanity has ever been to the end of the world.
Things have never looked so dire. Modern civilization is hurtling toward cataclysm on every front, all at once — nuclear stockpiling, carbon emissions, and rising sea levels. A war raging around a nuclear power plant in Ukraine. The plan for AI-driven war commanded from space. The installation of whale-killing sonar infrastructure beneath the ocean. The push to produce more plutonium pits for new nuclear warheads.
Yet we seem to be stuck in an intractable holding pattern. Our elected officials keep making the wrong decisions, spending more billions on the war machine and cutting budgets for human needs. The media keep reporting in ways that polarize. It seems as if it’s all part of some grand diabolical scheme. But is it? Who would be responsible? Could it be a globalist cabal? Maybe the Military Industrial Complex? Is it capitalism itself? Who or what is behind it? Is there any hope?
Koohan Paik-Mander, a Hawaii-based journalist, author and peace and environmental activist, will discuss humanity’s inability to lift itself out of the “race to the bottom.” She will also describe the tens of $billions earmarked in the national war budgets to fast-track AI, even though unmanned, space-based warfare will kill our oceans and severely hobble the planet’s inherent capacity to regenerate itself in the face of systems collapse.
