The United Nations established International Peace Day in 1984 after 193 countries unanimously agreed to create September 21 as Peace Day and the beginning of Climate Week. The 5 hour event will welcome over 380,000 people and is being presented by Paul Sladkus and The Good News Corporation in partnership with Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine. The event produced by Paul Sladkus and OMMM has invited celebrities across the globe to participate including AY Young, UN young advocate for sustainable energy, Keith Shocklee (Public Enemy), Anushuka Sen (39 million followers), Georgia Fumanti, FOWPAL (Federation of World Peace and Love), and many more. There will also be virtual messages from Stevie Wonder, Dr. Jane Goodall, Leonardo DiCaprio, Shakira, and Michael Douglas. The festivities will begin with a drum circle followed by the ringing of the Peace Bell via FOWPAL. Also featured at Times Square will be “The Largest Peace Friendship Tree” ever in Times Square, by the American Oriental Arts Foundation standing at 10 feet high and 26.3 feet wide, forged by craftsmen for 5 years. The Art piece will be surrounded by International models. The concert will begin with a virtual plea for a moment of silence and cease fire from UN Messenger of Peace, Ringo Starr. After some brief introductions Randy Edelman will take the stage and perform for Peace. The event will be live streamed all over the world as well as taking place live. A musical heterodox at times, an anomaly always…. Randy speaks in all genres known to man and some not yet invented… he can draft an image with a rhythm or a tempo and set it before the congregation in three dimensional charm, transporting the listener to an achromatic gray American Civil War battlefield, or the dripping trees, rotting vegetation, and murky olive green waters of a swamp in the deep dark south. The quantum physicist of the film world, Edelman has themed the soundtracks for over a hundred motion pictures and television shows. His film score medleys include “My Cousin Vinny”, “Ghostbusters ll”, “While You Were Sleeping”, “The Bruce Lee Story”, “Gettysburg”, “Dragonheart”, “The Mask”, “Kindergarten Cop”, the theme from the hit series “MacGyver”, “Last of the Mohicans” (for which he earned a Golden Globe nomination), and a wild parade of others.
