1970 Unity in Miami

"Miami is the site of the Fellowship's fifth International Convention in July 1970, the keynote of which is the Declaration of Unity: "This we owe to A.A.'s future: To place our common welfare first; to keep our Fellowship united. For on A.A. unity depend our lives, and the lives of those to come." Attending are 11,000 people from 50 states and 27 countries - as reported by Box 4-5-9, "the biggest assemblage of alcoholics the world has ever seen - all of them sober!" The convention marks Bill W.'s last public appearance at an A.A. gathering."
