If you came to the scheduled “in-world” Second Life premiere of peace activist Marshall Thompson’s remarkable documentary film, A Soldier’s Peace, on June 20, you know that technological glitches prevented us from seeing the film. We went ahead with the interview, though, with C.S. Kappler leading the discussion; and are we ever glad we did! Marshall, an Iraq War veteran, is a passionate, warm, and kindly advocate for peace with a terrific sense of humor.
Of course, we still wanted to stream the film into SL, and we’re not the kind of folks to let technological problems stop us! It is a distinct pleasure for all of us involved from NNSL and VS to host Marshall a second time, and we are proud to announce the Second Life premiere of A Soldier’s Peace at 5 PM PDT on Saturday, July 11. We’ve moved the film onto a new streaming server, and are tested and ready to proceed with our screening tonight. The only thing we lack…is you. Please join us at Netroots Nation Arena, where the film will be followed by an interview with Thompson.
