From WWII’s Aftermath to Iraq’s Battlefields: One Woman’s Fight Against War
Kathy Kelly’s journey began as a child watching post-WWII recovery efforts—an experience that later clashed with her disillusionment over U.S. military campaigns. The three-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee has visited Iraq 26 times, including during the Gulf War and Iraq War, witnessing firsthand the human cost of conflict.
‘All I Have Is a Voice’
Kelly, now a veteran peace activist, refuses to stay silent. Despite her decades of advocacy, she warns that the U.S. continues prioritizing military intervention over diplomacy. ‘Every bomb dropped is a failure of imagination,’ she says, echoing her call for nonviolent solutions.
A Nobel Nominee’s Unrelenting Mission
From organizing protests to co-founding the Voices for Creative Nonviolence, Kelly’s work challenges systems of power. Yet she remains critical: ‘We’re pouring resources into warfare while ignoring poverty and climate crises.’ Her story—a mix of grit and hope—resonates globally for Gen Z activists demanding change.
