You are listening to Rochester Indymedia. My name is Ted Forsyth. On April 19th, 2013, I interviewed Kathy Kellyâa co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Non-Violence, which is a campaign to end United States military and economic warfare. The website is V-C-N-C dot o-r-g. That's âVâ as in victor, âCâ as in creative, âNâ as in Nancy, and âVâ as in victor dot o-r-g. Kathy has lived in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Yemen and Her role in the convergence is to relay those experiences and give a human voice to the lived reality of people over seas who deal with drone surveillance and are murdered by drone attacks on a daily basis. Kathy, and many others, will be attending âResisting Drones, Global War, and Empireâ convergence being held in Syracuse, NY from April 26th to 28th.
