Mission:
Voices For Peace Institute LLC is committed to changing public opinion and moving the public to action so that being antiwar becomes mainstream and popular with the broadest possible segment of the American people.
--------------------
Voices For Peace Institute LLC (V4PI) will act either alone, or in collaboration with other groups to change public opinion and move the public to take action to oppose America's habit of resorting to military interventions in order to achieve its "interests".
This goal can be rightly seen to have both a "negative" dimension (i.e., "anti"-war) as well as a positive dimension. Whenever they can be solidly tied to the overarching goal of making being antiwar "mainstream" in America, V4PI is open to exploring positive initiatives that tend to promote the kind of solidarity with other nations that result in the opposite of a desire to economically or militarily dominate them. This spirit of solidarity is the opposite of both the origin and results of much American military interventionism. Without this sense of solidarity, it is unlikely that America will be able to break its addiction to using military force to get its way.
V4PI hopes to leverage this web site, along with it's companion blog site (http://v4pi.blogspot.com/) to facilitate sharing of event/meeting information, contact info, principles, etc. of groups that share with V4PI either a primary or strong focus of ending US military interventionism (particularly groups in west-central Wisconsin).
