World Citizen Garry Davis Launches Teleseminar Web Site To Promote World Government
www.askgarrydavis.org seeks questions from Internet public on subject: “World Peace Starts With You”
WASHINGTON, DC At 9 pm (est) May 25th, 2005 callers from around the world can call 866-414-2828, enter code no. 641848 and listen to World Citizen Garry Davis speak on the theme: “World Peace Starts With You.”
Davis, a World War II veteren, with over half a century’s experience in individualist peacemaking, an array of books on the subject* and founder of a government of World Citizens**, stated from his South Burlington, Vermont office, “World peacemakers must utilize the latest marketing techniques to reach the world public where the real solution to human problems is to be found in, by, and for the individual human.”
Emails have already been sent to individuals in numerous databases including those of voters in the World Referendum posted on the World Government Web site, www.worldservice.org. asking: “What is your most important question concerning the subject of world peace?” Davis promises to answer the questions, time permitting, on the upcoming teleseminar, a first of many.
The teleseminar marketing system is being used extensively by authors, lecturers, merchants of all categories, to promote and sell books, products and self-help income-producing techniques to anyone with a telephone and an email. Given the ubiquitous nature of cyberspace, and the quasi-universal use of the telephone worldwide, promoters of every kind have eagerly adopted the new technique reaping virtually instant awards from the waiting public.
Web sites already abound on the subject of world citizenship and world government. Davis’ numerous radio and TV appearance as well as his talks on the university circuits (see bio) bespeak his credibility and experience in this critical domain heretofore lacking a voice in this growing medium.
The opening email minces no words of the former B-17 bomber pilot’s basic premise: “You must raise your political sights if you want a peaceful world,” he claims. “It is our world. It is our lives at stake. The nation-state system is dysfunctional. War itself is the major symptom. And exclusive national citizenship perpetuates war, a collective suicide pact. Human rights, by definition, are global.”
Davis maintains that the very nature of teleseminars wherein 100, 500, or 1000 individuals wherever they are in the world can “unite” in time and space permits an instant “world peace action” by the callers claiming to be world citizens then and there and that by so doing they are “making world peace” between themselves.
The www.askgarrydavis.org site also informs the caller that Davis will attend the Book Expo America on June 3-5 in New York at the BookSurge Booth where he will sign his latest book, Letters to World Citizens, at 11-11:30 Sunday, June 5th.
