Hope Elizabeth May

I am a Professor of Philosophy at Central Michigan University where I teach a variety of classes. I also hunt for buried treasure found in the shipwreck of positive history. From found treasures, I spin a variety of educational products into existence such as: A Grotian Moment, Forward Into Memory, The Bertha von Suttner Project, and this podcast, Virtues of Peace. Here I am with a very big scrapbook, kept in the stacks of the Peace Palace Library, which contains thousands of U.S, newspaper clippings about the 1907 Hague Peace Conference.

Taylor Ackerman

I am a proud graduate of CMU ('16), where I first learned about the peace movement, international justice, and human rights. I continued to focus my academic inquiries on international justice at NYU, from which I graduated with a masters degree in global affairs. I am currently attending NYU Law School. That's me in the National Archives of the Netherlands, where I stumbled upon Lenore Selenka's beautiful submission of numerous petitions of women to the 1907 Hague Peace Conference.

Michael Buzzy

I am an undergraduate student at Central Michigan University double majoring in Political Science and Philosophy. At CMU, I am an Honors student, an Honors Program Teaching Assistant, a Writing Consultant for Central Michigan University’s Writing Center, and Treasurer of CMU’s Book Club. I first became aware of and interested in the Peace Movement and Positive History after becoming a student of Hope May in 2020. I assist in running the various social media platforms for Ethics-Talk/Virtues of Peace. After my undergrad is complete, I plan on pursuing a Fulbright grant and attending law school.

Outside of my involvement with the Cora Di Brazzà Foundation, I wear three hats. First, I operate as the Vice President of the Theosophical Society in Detroit. Second, I am employed within the archives at Oakland Community College, where I also study Cybersecurity. Third, I pay the bills with contract work in IT - my most noteworthy client being the Energy Medicine Research Institute.
