| The Crisis in Burma Walter Koenig works to bring world attention to the Burmese political crisis--and to the thousands of refugees suffering because of it. |
| At the invitation of the humanitarian group U.S. Campaign for Burma, Walter and his son Andrew visited refugee camps along the Burma-Thailand border in July 2007. He will be helping in their grassroots campaign to get the message out about the human rights violations, and the long running struggle and suffering of the Burmese people: including the permanent residents of the refugee camps in Thailand. Keep an eye out for Walter and Andrew's speaking appearances regarding the Burma situation. Visit our Burma Crisis page for more pictures, interviews, and details of the trip. For up to date information on the situation visit US CAMPAIGN FOR BURMA. |

| Buck Alice and the Actor-Robot comes to the airwaves! Walter's satiric-fantasy novel about a world where the only survivors are a bunch of losers was produced as an audio drama in August 2008 by The Colonial Radio Theatre on the Air. Follow updates to the project at CRT's blog. Watch for it's release in 2010 on Sirrus Radio and at Borders and B. Dalton Bookstores! Originally released in 1989, the book was rereleased in 2006 by Coscom and will again see publication soon from Permuted Press! |
| The people of Burma have demonstrated incredible bravery in the ongoing struggle against the brutal military regime in control of their country. The current military dictatorship has imprisoned Aung San Suu Kyi, the democratically elected president of Burma and a Nobel Peace Prize winner, since 1993. Known to much of the world as "Burma's Nelson Mandela", Suu Kyi leads a remarkable peaceful campaign for human rights and democracy against the Burmese military dictatorship. Like Mandela when he was imprisoned in South Africa, Suu Kyi has appealed for international support. |
| Burma, renamed Myanmar by the military regime, is a known source of human trafficking and is the second largest producer of illicit opium. They have no Bill of Rights and their constitution was suspended in 1988. Their violent policies include severe beatings and torture of detainees and the Karen people. They have destroyed more than 3,300 ethnic minority villages in their scorched earth ethnic cleansing campaign - which resulted in creating more than 1 million refugees. They have forcibly conscripted up to 70,000 child soldiers (more than any other country in the world), and have nearly doubled the number of political prisoners in the last 18 months.... to more than 2,100. |

| Walter on his trip to Thailand and the crisis in Burma: "Time and again on this trip we were exposed to human beings who were gentle in nature but strong in determination. There was no beating of chests and cries for vengeance: just the absolute certainty that with time, perseverance, and pressure for change from the rest of the world, life would get better."

| Richard Hatch of Battlestar Galactica stars as Dr. Eric Norris, a brilliant researcher guilt-ridden over a family tragedy. But when an extraterrestrial parasite fuses with his DNA, Norris gives birth to a half-human, half- alien progeny. Can a man of both science and compassion now protect his “son” from the government, or will society demand this “monster” be destroyed? Walter Koenig, Courtney Peldon and an all-star sci-fi cast – including Marina Sirtis (Star Trek: The Next Generation), Erick Avari (Heroes), Gary Graham (Alien Nation), Patricia Tallman (Babylon 5), Jay Acovone (Stargate SG-1) and Richard Herd (Star Trek: Voyager) – co-star in the provocative thriller that A Slice Of Sci-Fi calls, “a brilliant piece of topical work that has extremely important implications for our contemporary times.” |

| Will your voice be counted? Crimes against humanity continue as Burma's military seeks to subdue ethnic minority groups before the 2010 elections. |
| What Fans are Saying!! "Alternately scary and kooky, Inalienable boasts a procession of sci-fi icons... touching symbolically on timely topics like toleration of differences and compassion towards foreigners, even if they are aliens. While Erik Avari does radically cosmic comic relief as a weirdly eloquent lawyer defending the civil rights of the partially human offspring, when not presiding over a rather strange but genius organization called The Society For Alternative Explanations. Where do you sign up." ~ Prairie Miller "...Walter Koenig, delivers this stirring, original film about what makes someone human, no matter their planet of origin.... that tests the limits of human compassion and societal rejection. Very emotional and very powerful with a shock ending that will make you hate humanity just a little bit more." ~ Louis Fowler "A courtroom thriller masquerading as a sci-fi drama, InAlienable is an intriguing effort with higher acting caliber than one might expect...." ~ DVD Verdict "It astonishes by how much better it gets as it goes along..." -SciFi Weekly "...a brilliant piece of topical work that coats a light veneer of sci-fi over a controversial message that has extemely important implications for our contemporary times." -A Slice of Sci Fi "Inalienable...Walter Koenig script entertains, solid Sci-Fi Thriller! The highlight of the Backlot Festival yesterday was undoubtedly the Sci-Fi thriller, "Inalienable", starring Richard Hatch, Walter Koenig, and Courtney Peldon." -The tattler, a slice of life with Julian Ayrs |
| Walter still does not have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Help us correct this ridiculous oversight! Walter is the only one of the seven main Star Trek stars still without a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. All the funds needed have been raised: we only await the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce's vote in June 2010. The WOF committee voted in June 2009 and chose again NOT to award Walter Koenig a star on the Walk of Fame. A new nomination has been submitted and the committee will vote again in June 2010. It is time now that the last star for the original cast is awarded as the torch is passed onto a new cast with the premier of "Star Trek XI" in May of 2009. The website staff here ask that people do everything they can to encourage the committee to vote to award Walter much deserved star! Visit our Walter's Star Page to see how you can help! |
