Kitty Reads Lit for Peace: Plato – Book XI “The Law of Treasure Trove” plus The Next Peacelands

This episode features a brief excerpt from Plato’s Laws, Book XI, where he reflects on the habits and challenges of retail trade and daily commerce. Kitty reads only a short portion, offering listeners a moment inside Plato’s practical, grounded side—less cosmic than the Republic, more tied to the rhythms of ordinary life.

Kitty O'Compost warms up for The Peace Experiments (Season Zero) , the upcoming Peace Is Here series exploring peace, AI, and the commons.

The episode closes with The Next Peacelands, where Avis Kalfsbeek reads a real-time list of global warzones and major arms suppliers—an honest grounding in the world as it is, and an invitation to practice peace with intention.
