Festival of Hope Program
The theme of the Festival will be “What gives us hope” three years after the courageous, prophetic action of the seven activists for which they have or are now paying a high price with prison terms. Stephen Kobasa will be the moderator. Reflections will be offered by supporters Kathy Kelly, Jessica Stewart, Robert Randall, Luz Catarineau Colville and Matt Daloisio. There will also be reports from Teresa Grady on the Beyond Trident campaign in Georgia, Ken Jones from Reject Raytheon in North Carolina, Jackie Allen on Resist Trident in Connecticut and Leonard Eiger from Ground Zero in Washington State. Music will be provided by Bud Courtney and Anthony Donovan of the NYC Filthy Rotten System and Bobcat Carruthers of New Haven. Mark Colville will speak and receive a blessing before sentencing from Liz McAlister.
Mark’s Sentencing will be on April 9 at 10am (please see calendar listing for info).
