Understanding Deep Politics Conference
Revealing the Driving Forces Behind World Events and Creating Alternative Solutions

Discover the Deeper Roots of Our Current Crises

In one packed weekend, Understanding Deep Politics will bring together ten distinguished speakers and hundreds of concerned citizens like you for the purpose of challenging the mainstream perceptions of political reality and to reveal the hidden forces behind many widely accepted historical and current events. Our speakers will draw upon many decades of research to help you connect the dots that are pointing us towards an Orwellian police state—indeed, to a much darker future than most citizens can even imagine. Our wide-ranging roster of presenters, including David Ray Griffin, Cynthia McKinney, Jim Marrs and Ellen Brown, will delve into the roots of our current crises and the dynamics driving despotic governance, financial plunder, imperialism, loss of civil liberties, and assaults on public health. Further, they will explore how such vital insights are continually being suppressed as they expose the media matrix that obscures these facts and stupefies our culture, all in the interest of protecting a malignant status quo. 

Contribute to the Urgent Search for Solutions

Understanding Deep Politics will also provide a unique educational and organizing opportunity. We hope to harness the talents and expertise of all the participants with the goal of creating new strategies that have a credible chance of success. The weekend will culminate with two solutions-focused multi-speaker panels that will explore how we can awaken, unite and empower the larger community to overcome the deep forces controlling our society and to reshape our destiny. 

Other Special Features

This unprecedented and provocative conference will span three days, including an early Friday evening meet & greet get-together. A large discussion and resource room will be available throughout the weekend where attendees can brainstorm, meet the speakers and collaborate with our peers. In addition, the venue of the vibrant city of Santa Cruz will provide many opportunities to enjoy the central coast of California, with its abundant natural beauty and close proximity to the San Francisco Bay area. 

Please join us at this sure-to-be-historic conference and be a part of this crucial effort to gain a deeper understanding of the causes of our societal dilemmas as we work together to fashion new possibilities for the betterment of a
