A 10-Part Video Series Asking Peace Inspired Questions NATO Won’t
Calling for Peace: In 2025, as NATO celebrated its 75th anniversary, I noticed something strange.
More tanks, more pledges, more war games—yet less space to question any of it. That’s why I created this series.
To pause. To ask. To imagine something else. Each 60-second video cuts through the noise. Some offer critique. Others, hope. But all of them challenge what we’ve been told to accept.
Because if we don’t speak up, we risk sleepwalking into a future shaped by fear—not care.
🎥 Watch. Reflect. Share. Speak.

About the Creator – Gregg the Artivist
I made this series not to provoke, but to invite. To question how peace is being defined in our name—and who gets left behind in that definition. I believe we’re in a crisis of imagination, and this series is one small act of refusal. A refusal to stop imagining something better.
I made it to be honest. We’re told there’s no alternative to militarisation. That peace must wait. But if we don’t imagine something better, we’ll keep getting more of the same.
