This a most incredible idea started by Mark Johnson.

He went around the world joining musicians and people together in one project to bring peace to the world through music. He has made a documentary film on DVD.

He then wants to build music schools to join the world and bring people together in peace.

Here is an interview which will explain what he is doing. Then a couple of songs showing you what the outcome is.

Here is the interview and one of the songs.

Mark lives in Santa Monica and he is continuing to do more of this. Im going to try to get in touch with him to see if I can get involved in this.

his enduring devotion (he called it at 10 yrs) to trying to do something positive with music.. gives me hope..

a few months ago, I started telling people that I wanted to make a box set of music with songs from any english speaking artist about troubled minds.. positive songs that speak against stigmas and the like.. yeah yeah.. my website.. I didnt mention my thoughts on here on purpose, sooner..

anyways.. I really like what he says about how music can bring people together, because Im hoping my little plan can bring lots of people to speak positively in a motivational way..

it really looks like his plan has come a long way, I just hope it doesnt take me 10 years... geesh.. that shows a lot of patience and percevierance (I think I just spelled that wrong)..

my heart goes out to his project, and people like him..
