Alcatraz,
a former Federal penitentiary and a sacred site for First
Nation people, is currently administered by the Department
of the Interior. Through a political process, be it an initiative,
an act of Congress or direct purchase of the island, we have
the means and opportunity to transform Alcatraz Island into
a Global Peace Center.
The choice is simple, do we really want an old and decaying
prison to continue to be a prominent landmark for the San
Francisco Bay Area, or do we want to take this opportunity
to create a New Alcatraz, one which will
mark a new emerging paradigm committed to progressive, enlightened
values ?!
San Francisco, the "Geneva of the West" and a major
center for the rapidly emerging Pacific Rim community of nations,
is ideally suited for this
majestic and noble project. From the signing of The United
Nations Charter to the present day peace movement, San Francisco,
the City of St. Francis, has a storied history as a progressive
center for spiritual enlightenment, environmental awareness,
and an engaged socially conscience populace and business community.
The economic benefits of our proposed
21st century majestic, visionary project will be immensely
positive. The New Alcatraz, a place of light,
beauty and freedom will become an artistic, educational and
spiritual mecca which will attract millions of people from
all over the world who will thoroughly enjoy being "Inspired,
Delighted, Healed and Enlightened".

IN SUMMARY: The Alcatraz
Conversion Project is both a challenge and a golden
opportunity to initiate a tremendous community project, one
which has the potential to positively transform the energy
of the entire Bay Area and the world and thus catalyze a Global
Renaissance.Through this process we will re-consecrate Alcatraz
Island as a sacred site, and thus acknowledge the Native American
people, while simultaneously giving birth to a new and peaceful
paradigm for all humanity.
The Opportunity Is Here..The
Choice Is Ours To Make...
