RFC 1 4/7/69
The Birth of the Internet and the Implications for Peacebuilding
April 7, 1969 is often treated as a symbolic birthday of the internet, because RFC 1, Steve Crocker’s “Host Software,” is dated that day. By the end of 1969, four computers were connected on the initial ARPANET, and what the Internet Society calls the “budding Internet” was underway.
What strikes me most is that the internet’s symbolic birth did not begin with a trumpet blast or a decree. It began with a request for comments. Not a command. Not a manifesto. Not a demand for uniformity. A request. An invitation to think together. RFC 2555 later recalled that in those early days, the Network Working Group understood its documentation this way: notes could be produced “at any site by anybody” and included in the series. That means the internet, at least in one of its founding gestures, carried a seed of humility, collaboration, and shared authorship.
That matters for peacebuilding. Peace is rarely made by proclamation alone. Peace is usually made the same way the early internet was made: by imperfect people sending unfinished thoughts to one another, testing language, revising assumptions, building trust slowly, and creating protocols for living together. In that sense, the best theology of the internet is not that it is omniscient or liberating by nature, but that it can become a commons of encounter. Its original form suggests conversation before coercion . . .Read the rest of the article at PeaceGrooves.

This has been on my mind, especially since the Charlie Kirk murder: Truth and Reconciliation. There can be no reconciliation without truth.

CBC: The Orange Shirt Society has spent more than a decade promoting Orange Shirt Day to create awareness about the impacts of Indian Residential Schools, but it's now fighting back against companies that have appropriated the Orange Shirt with non-complaint designs.

After 10 years, many of the 94 Calls to Action issued by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission have either stalled or have not been started.

#Toronto: Why Canadian #Indigenous Filmmakers Are Having a Moment
With eight films in the TIFF lineup, industry leaders say a years-in-the-making initiative to advance #FirstNations creative is paying off.
September 6, 2025
"Canadian indigenous filmmakers are having a moment at the #TorontoFilmFestival this year, with eight features in the official lineup.
"That has #EvaThomas, a writer and filmmaker from #WalpoleIslandFirstNation, busily working the room during an #IndigenousScreenOffice (ISO) breakfast at TIFF‘s Lightbox headquarters. The goal is drumming up buzz for the world premiere of her feminist crime thriller #Nika&Madison on Sunday night.
"Ahead of the Toronto premiere, Thomas and her team have plastered downtown Toronto with 'Wanted' posters from a fictional #WyandotCounty Police with the faces of #NikaAndMadison, two young indigenous women played in the feature by Ellyn Jade and Star Slade and who are forced on the run after a violent encounter with a predatory cop.
"Crucially, Nika & Madison has financing from the ISO, Canada’s film financier for First Nations storytellers like Thomas. 'Money is fundamental to the process and being able to have the support of the ISO means we have a record number of indigenous features at TIFF,' Thomas tells The Hollywood Reporter.
"Besides Nika & Madison, the official Toronto fest lineup includes mostly world premieres for #ShaneBelcourt & #TanyaTalaga’s #NiNaadamaadiz: #RedPowerRising; #BrettenHannam’s Sk+te’kmujue’katik (At the Place of Ghosts); #TashaHubbard’s Meadowlarks; #ZachariasKunuk’s #Uiksaringitara (Wrong Husband); #GailMaurice’s Blood Lines; #DarleneNaponse’s Aki; and #RhayneVermette’s Levers.
"Kerry Swanson, CEO of the ISO, says indigenous filmmakers were doing a lot with little financing for decades. That’s before, in recent years, the Canadian government steered dedicated funding to support First Nations creative talent.
"The federal government financing, in part, supports efforts towards #reconciliation between indigenous and non-indigenous Canadians after historical #racism and #injustices. But Swanson and indigenous filmmakers are mindful that financing currently directed at them can always be taken away if the country’s political winds blow elsewhere.
" 'We can never stop fighting, not just to grow our funding, but to maintain the funding that we have in the face of cuts, in the face of this backlash against inclusive programs and funding initiatives. We’re very aware of that,' Swanson argues."
