I have been so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to travel all across the U.S. as part of my Building Peace Through Kindness LLC and to promote the film I am featured in, Stranger at the Gate. Just in the past few months I have been to New York NY, New Orleans LA, Santa Fe NM, Madison WI, and several cities in my own Indiana. I have met wonderful open minded people with a mission to share knowledge, understanding, and peace across communities.
