Founder
Meet our founder"The collective fear, secrecy, polarization, and loss of purpose within all of us have allowed leaders to subvert democracy, and to take away our freedoms. By each one of us making a commitment to work on these issues both inside ourselves and out in the world, we are changing our collective direction for a brighter future."
— Fred Burks, PEERS founder
Purpose
What we're about
Our website was founded by Fred Burks, who served as a language interpreter for presidents and other government officials around the world including G.W. Bush, Clinton, Gore, and Cheney. Late in his career, he began discovering significant levels of global deception and manipulation. His courageous whistleblowing was reported in the Washington Post and other major media. Learn more about the fascinating history of PEERS and WantToKnow.info.
We are a small organization with a large network of volunteers with diverse backgrounds in media activism, journalism, high-level government work, academia, social justice advocacy, grassroots organizing, and spiritual/metaphysical work. Our service relies on courageous, dedicated researchers and concerned citizens from around the globe who have made key contributions to our site.
