2009 11th Annual
Harnessing the Winds of Change - The 11 Annual Kateri Tekakwitha Peace Conference
On election night in 2008, people all across the world were joyful and celebrated both the election of our first African-American President and the coming end of George W. Bush’s failed presidency. With the election of President Obama, America clearly voted for change. The issue of race was also brought to center stage predominantly in a positive way. Many of us began to smile again with renewed hope and it seemed as if a soft and gentle spring breeze moved across the land.
Featured Speakers: Bruce R. Hare - Lawrence Davidson - Janet Amighi - Joanne Sheehan
Our conference this year is on August 14 & 15, 2009 and you can learn more about our featured speakers here:
