Sean Mendelson Shares the Legacy of “Peanuts” and a Message of Global Harmony on “Good News Broadcast” with Reverend Paul Sladkus

(New York, NY – November 2025) — The spirit of timeless storytelling and global unity came together when Sean Mendelson, musician, voice actor, and son of the legendary Peanuts producer Lee Mendelson, appeared on “Good News Broadcast” with Reverend Paul Sladkus, founder of Good News Corporation and creator of International Peace Day in Times Square. The inspiring conversation celebrated 75 years of Charles M. Schulz’s “Peanuts”, a comic strip that has shaped generations with its humor, heart, and emotional intelligence — and explored how art, music, and media can inspire positive change in the world today.

During the segment, Sean reflected on the enduring power of Peanuts, a cultural touchstone produced by his father, Lee Mendelson, who brought the beloved characters to television alongside composer Vince Guaraldi, whose jazz compositions defined the sound of childhood for millions. Sean, who as a child voiced several Peanuts characters in the original series, continues to carry the torch alongside his brother Jason Mendelson, overseeing Lee Mendelson Film Productions and reissuing rare soundtracks that preserve the franchise’s emotional and historical legacy.

Reverend Paul Sladkus — a pioneer of uplifting media — founded Good News Corporation and has dedicated over 25 years to promoting kindness, peace, and environmental responsibility through his annual International Peace Day Celebration in Times Square every September 21. This world-recognized event gathers artists, humanitarians, and activists to advocate for unity, love, and global understanding.

In a fitting extension of that mission, after the interview Reverend Sladkus and Sean Mendelson discussed their upcoming participation in Earth Day Times Square on April 22, an event dedicated to raising awareness about climate change, sustainability, and the importance of protecting the planet. Sean and Jason Mendelson have been invited to join the festivities, representing the Peanuts legacy — which has long championed empathy, environmental appreciation, and the simple beauty of human connection.

As the Peanuts franchise celebrates its 75th anniversary, the Mendelson family continues to share its enduring message: that laughter, love, and compassion can make the world a better place. Through programs like Good News Broadcast, International Peace Day, and Earth Day Times Square, both Sean Mendelson and Reverend Paul Sladkus carry forward the legacy of storytelling and service that uplifts humanity.

About Good News Corporation:

Founded by Reverend Paul Sladkus, Good News Corporation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting positive stories that inspire global unity and environmental consciousness. For over two decades, it has produced International Peace Day Times Square, celebrating harmony and collaboration through art, music, and dialogue.

Monday, JUNE 12th AT 7PM

HARLEM, NY – May 10, 2017 – The Apollo Theater today announced details for its largest fundraising event – the 2017 Apollo Spring Gala, which will take place at the theater on Monday, June 12 at 7pm. The star-studded benefit concert will be hosted by award-winning actor and comedian Cedric The Entertainer and will feature performances by renowned artists, including CeeLo Green, Sheila E., Charlie Wilson, and Wé McDonald of NBC’s The Voice (who started her career winning Amateur Night at the Apollo). All proceeds from the celebration will support the non-profit organization’s year-round, world-class artistic, education, and community programming.

“Since its inception, The Apollo Theater has been home to legendary and up-and-coming artists alike, serving as an ever-changing driving force in popular music and culture not only in Harlem, but across the world,” stated Jonelle Procope, President & CEO of The Apollo Theater. “We are thrilled to announce this lineup of incredible talent for our upcoming Spring Gala that will help us to continue our legacy of cultivating talent by supporting the Theater’s year-round performing arts, education and community programming.”

Every year as part of the evening, the Apollo recognizes individuals and corporations for their outstanding contributions to the performing arts, community leadership and for their philanthropic support of initiatives in the African American community. This year, the Theater will present Peabody Award winning director and producer Stan Lathan with the Trailblazer Award for his substantial contributions to the performing arts. Lathan’s extensive credits include cultural classics ranging from “AMEN,” and “Sanford & Son” to “Def Comedy Jam” and “The Bernie Mac Show”, to Dave Chappelle’s recent comedy special, “Deep in the Heart of Texas.”

“If there’s anyone who deserves to be honored as a trailblazer, it’s Stan Lathan, and if there is any venue perfectly suited to showcase a great benefit concert it’s the Apollo Theater. I’m truly privileged to host this night celebrating the Apollo and Stan!” commented Cedric The Entertainer. “Regarding Stan, he really knows comedy, and he has produced & directed some of the most prolific comedians of all time across many iconic television shows. His talents have also stretched beyond comedy into other formats directing some of the most memorable dance performances on the small screen including Alvin Ailey, Martha Graham and Mikhail Baryshnikov. Stan is the man! I’m especially proud to be a part of this year’s Apollo Spring Gala because it’s an important and celebratory evening at the legendary Theater where all of the music and comedic greats have launched their careers. It’s of utmost importance to continue this tradition, raising funds for the Apollo’s incredible arts and education programs that will launch the world’s next generation of talent. Add to that some great performances by our special musical guests – – It’s going to be a high-energy, star-powered evening!”

This year’s recipient of the Corporate Award is Verizon, for their exemplary leadership in diversity, community leadership and innovation. Rose Kirk, President of the Verizon Foundation will accept the award on behalf of the company.

“Fueling tomorrow’s tech innovators while leveling the playing field for minority and underserved students is not only a priority for Verizon, it is our responsibility,” said Rose Stuckey Kirk, Chief Corporate Social Responsibility Officer & President, Verizon Foundation. “We are honored to be recognized by the Apollo Theater for the work we are doing to provide free technology, access and hands-on learning to students in need across America. We are at a critical point when the world around us is shifting, with technology at its core. We need more kids to have access to quality education in science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM) so they are prepared for the jobs of tomorrow.”

The Apollo Spring Gala begins with red carpet arrivals at 6:00 PM followed by the gala concert and awards ceremony at 7:00 PM with Music Director Ray Chew. The evening will also include a post-performance party with a lounge created by celebrity event planner and Apollo board member Bronson van Wyck.

The UNSRC Aux Antilles Club was founded in 1990 by U.N. Haitian staff members who wanted to share their culture and that of other Caribbean countries with others. Since its existence, the Club has showcased countless talents from Haiti as well as from other countries. It has also been very present in helping raise funds for Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and recently for Japan. This gala is yet another event that the Club is organizing.

Tabou Combo. Tabou Combo is Haiti’s most famous group. For over 30 years, they have toured worldwide and are celebrated as the “Ambassadors of Kompa” – the popular Haitian dance rhythm sung in French, English, Spanish and Creole. Tabou Combo’s music is aimed squarely at the dance floor – mixing Haitian Meringue, Rara (vodoun percussion) with Kompa and elements of Brazilian music, Soukous and Funk. Their phenomenal popularity has given them an important standing in Haitian society and they use their lyrics to defend the poor people in their songs.

The gala is in support of Uni Haiti Phase 1 – the reconstruction of the sanitation facilities of l’Ecole la Rédemption, Uni Haiti’s partner school, in Léogâne, Haiti.

The James Jay Dudley Luce Foundation  honors Haiti and The needs of the world are vast, but so too are our many resources. One of humanity’s most valuable resources is young global leadership impacting positive social change, which this foundation endeavors to support. The Luce and Dudley families have had a long and historical commitment to youth, education, and social improvement in the United States and around the world. I aspire to continue this family tradition through the grants, awards, and publications of The James Jay Dudley Luce Foundation – playing a role, however humble, in bettering humanity. My goal is uplifting the worst of humanity while celebrating the best of humanity – especially the arts.
