On April 25th of last year, the 9/11 truth movement and the world lost a singularly powerful voice in the struggle for lasting peace and justice.
Beloved scholar, teacher, and activist Dr. Graeme MacQueen — a native of Nova Scotia and a professor of religious studies for three decades at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario — dedicated his entire adult life to opposing war and the last 17 years of it to exposing the foremost war-enabling myth of our time: 9/11.
Shortly before he died, MacQueen compiled all of his 9/11-related writings into a single online volume called The Pentagon’s B-Movie. His analysis of war as an all-encompassing system and his research into 9/11 were then memorialized in the Center’s 2023 documentary, Peace, War and 9/11. Both works are essential for understanding the state of endless war and ubiquitous propaganda our world is mired in today.
Even though his health was declining, MacQueen devoted many hours in the final months of his life to helping form the International Center for 9/11 Justice. He didn’t get to see his work come to fruition, as the Center launched two months after his passing, but he left full of confidence that it would flourish long into the future. Were it not for his early involvement, the Center would probably not be in existence today.
One year later, we pay homage to this great man who educated and inspired us so profoundly.
Over the next month, the Center will commemorate the one-year anniversary of MacQueen’s passing with the four events listed below. Two of them are in-person — one in Boston, Massachusetts, and one in Bath, England — and two are online.
Please join us in honoring Graeme MacQueen and in continuing his life’s mission of ending war and creating lasting peace — a mission that is perhaps more urgent today than at any point in history.

Following the screening, there will be a panel discussion with Ted Walter (co-director of the film), Massachusetts anti-war organizer Marty Schotz, and renowned writer Edward Curtin, who was a close friend of MacQueen the last few years of his life.

Sunday, May 19: From ‘National Security’ to ‘Biosecurity’ — An Online Symposium
The last of our events honoring our dear friend Graeme MacQueen will be the online symposium From ‘National Security’ to ‘Biosecurity’: Global Power Dynamics and the Erosion of Freedom in the 21st Century.
This professionally livestreamed event will take place on Sunday, May 19, from 1:00 to 3:00 PM Eastern at UKColumn.org.
IC911 board member Marilyn Langlois and Ted Walter will give opening remarks. Featured speakers will include Dr. Niels Harrit, Dr. Piers Robinson, Dr. Madhava Setty, and Dr. Meryl Nass.
IC911 board member David Chandler will introduce the latter two speakers, who are less known in the 9/11 research community but are on the front lines of the health freedom community. Dr. Nass is a leading critic of the WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty, which she will be speaking on ahead of an important vote by WHO member nations next month.
MacQueen was deeply skeptical of the Covid narrative and, while he did not publish anything of his own on it, he strongly supported others in their research and activism, including opposition to Covid policies in Canada and at McMaster. This symposium is dedicated to honoring his thinking about the Covid event and to exploring its relationship to 9/11.
Throughout the talks of all four featured speakers, we will analyze the parallels and connections between 9/11 and Covid and the actors behind them and also seek to build stronger ties between the overlapping 9/11 and Covid research communities.
Please save the date of May 19th and stay tuned for more information!
