Mindful media for a changing world
Understand the world more deeply. Develop the inner resilience to meet it. Expand what we believe is possible. Participate in transforming the world.
For 20+ years, our whistleblower-founded nonprofit has looked beneath the surface of history and current events beyond the official story, educating the public on the buried human rights abuses and deeper forces driving today's global challenges regardless of who’s elected into office. Yet we’re just as committed to what comes next. We offer inspiring resources on personal transformation, consciousness, social change, and real-world solutions to reimagine our current paradigms for the future of humanity.

"The collective fear, secrecy, polarization, and loss of purpose within all of us have allowed leaders to subvert democracy, and to take away our freedoms. By each one of us making a commitment to work on these issues both inside ourselves and out in the world, we are changing our collective direction for a brighter future."

What we're about
Our website was founded by Fred Burks, who served as a language interpreter for presidents and other government officials around the world including G.W. Bush, Clinton, Gore, and Cheney. Late in his career, he began discovering significant levels of global deception and manipulation. His courageous whistleblowing was reported in the Washington Post and other major media. Learn more about the fascinating history of PEERS and WantToKnow.info.
We are a small organization with a large network of volunteers with diverse backgrounds in media activism, journalism, high-level government work, academia, social justice advocacy, grassroots organizing, and spiritual/metaphysical work. Our service relies on courageous, dedicated researchers and concerned citizens from around the globe who have made key contributions to our site.
