The Bright Side

Erik Lawyer is a Seattle Firefighter who considers himself to be a regular guy. September 11, 2001 exponentially transformed his world-view, and in what some may say an unlikely way. Lawyer realized that hate and separation will not change our world for the better. So this ‘regular guy’ set out to make a bold move and make the shift from Fear to Love, focused on transforming the fear and separation into unity, peace, and global healing.  He has helped organize One: The Event on September 11, 2011 in Seattle, Washington, at Memorial Stadium-Seattle Center. This event will include tens of thousands of local and global participants and a goal of 3M via webcast actively engaging a lineup of inspiring top-level speakers, thinkers, and creative game-changers from a diverse cross-section of society and also including a star-marquee of music and theatrical events.
