Description:

Between an intimate poetry retreat with Sensei Peter Levitt and the upcoming calligraphy retreat, Sensei Kazuaki Tanahashi discusses his work as a peace activist to address the connected issues of our times: a potential U.S. attack on North Korea, climate change, immigration, and population explosion. Sensei Kaz shares about his strategic website No War With North Korea and art from his exhibit “Peace or War,” which debuted at the Peace Museum in Nagasaki earlier this year. Calling us to collective action he says, “it seems that the Earth is a sinking boat. When we are in a sinking boat, we all try to work together. We are not trying to sell more things on the boat or make some profit. We should really change our priorities. Saving the boat is the priority.”
