A timely musical performance by Meaku, who joined with his friend Yung (of the hit group Cali Swag District) to create the song, “Nucleus,” produced by Grammy Award-Winning Producer David ‘GX’ Kirkwood. This song was created to bring more awareness to the situation still ongoing in Nigeria, concerning the lost girls.
A preview of Beyond Right and Wrong, a powerful documentary that highlights the vital role of forgiveness, will be shown. Peace murals from Art Miles Mural Project will be on display.cWith two million children having been killed by war since 2004 and 300,000 child soldiers forced into wars around the world, it is time for PeaceNow! At the event, PeaceNow.com will introduce its innovative solutions, “Three Pillars to Creating Peace.”
“With two million children having been killed by war since 2004 and 300,000 child soldiers forced into wars around the world, we need to do something right now,” says Bruer, who founded PeaceNow (a fiscally sponsored project of Inquiring Systems, Inc. a 501-c-3 not for profit) in 2013.
“We are blessed that so many creative and intelligent people are coming together to share their artistic gifts and their dedication to creating peace, and to be a part of our night as we introduce what I believe is the most innovative solution to creating peace in a generation.”
PeaceNow has been recognized by the international organization UNESCO as an organization that is contributing to peace.

Don’t miss this very cool, topical and timely event. The networking alone would be worth going to the VIP reception or the screening. The ability to get so much information and be so acutely informed on this topic would make you stand out amongst your peers.
