Different histories,
common future
White Tulips movement – we started it
here in Estonia with a group of friends, 20 young Estonians with
Estonian and Russian origin,
who have the vision that all nationalities should live friendly within
our
communities. As the relocation of the II World War monument in Tallinn
to its
new home in the soldier’s graveyard resulted in tensions between
Estonian
Russians and Estonians, the White Tulips -movement started to spread
their
peaceful message of not hating anyone and that even the Estonians and
Estonian
Russians may have different pasts, they have common future.
All Estonians and Estonian Russians have been called to place white
flowers (if
possible white tulips) to sites and events of importance for both
Russians and
Estonians as a sign of respect, dignity and peace.
You can read comments and
see pictures of White Tulip -movement from

All the best,
Kairi

Mikk is a shaman extraordinaire...if anyone can
have an
impact there with Open Space, it is him ably assisted by the two or
three other
Estonians I know, young and energetic women who remember the singing
revolution
and what is possible.
There are no small countries in this world
anymore. There are only friends at work.
Best
wishes,
friends.

As
many of you will have noticed, temperatures are definitely rising
in
Estonia.
The situation is obviously delicate and critical - and right in
the
middle of
it is one of our friends, Mikk Sarv. I met Mikk some years ago and
he wanted
to bring Open Space to Estonia - which he has done! I did a
training
program
there, and he has done many more since. He also arranged
for the
translation
of The User's Guide into Estonia. Mikk does not live in
Tallinn (the
capitol) but his son does - and Estonia is by no means a
large
country, so
nobody lives very far from anything. Mikk says he is talking to
his
fellow
"spaceniks" about the possibilities of opening some space for
conversations
that might bring the situation from the level of overt
confrontation
down to
something more useful. Lots of luck Mikk! You are in
our thoughts and
prayers. If you want to send Mikk a note, his email is
