First, they are the public faces of our movement, and they mark some of the few times that our ideas are discussed in mainstream sources. Some politicians are so fearful of this prospect that they arrest us for holding conferences. More important, conferences are for us. They are ways for our movement to meet, network, and build a community. The Internet has been a godsend for every dissident movement around the world . . . but we can’t live on pixels alone.  So, it’s with pleasure that I announce NPI’s first conference for 2015.
