Pax Christi Boston invites you to into Conversation with Voices for Creative Nonviolence.

Kathy Kelly,

Nobel Peace Prize nominee and co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Nonviolence in Chicago (www.vcnv.org) shares her insights about the costs of violence that she has witnessed in Haiti, Bosnia, the Occupied West Bank, Beirut, Jordan, Baghdad, Gaza, Pakistan, and the US.
