26] – On Fri., Jan. 19 from noon to 1 PM, join the Dorothy Day Catholic Worker in a vigil urging the powers that be to abolish war and torture, to disarm all weapons, to end indefinite detention, to close Guantanamo, to establish justice for all and help create the Beloved Community! The vigil takes place at the White House on Pennsylvania Ave. NW. Contact Art @ artlaffin@hotmail.com or at 202-360-6416.

27] – There is usually a silent peace vigil on Fridays, from 5 to 6 PM, sponsored by Homewood Friends and Stony Run Meetings, outside the Homewood Friends Meetinghouse, 3107 N. Charles St. The Jan. 16 vigil will remind us that War Is Not the Answer and that there is the need to stop torture, and prosecute the torturers.

28] – Join Amnesty International and other human rights advocates on Fri., Jan. 16 at 6 PM outside the Saudi Embassy, 601 New Hampshire Ave., WDC, to say Free Raif Badawi! The protest will take place during a dinner reception at the embassy. The day also holds significance because Raif will endure his second set of lashes (sets of 50 with a 1000 lashes total) that Friday, in public, at the al-Jafali mosque in Jeddah. This is a flagrant abuse of human rights and Raif must not endure another day of lashings, and must be released immediately. Raif and his family, including his 3 little children, are in pain. Meet AI at 6 PM at 601 New Hampshire Ave. NW, WDC. Go to https://www.facebook.com/events/340716662789322/?ref=6&ref_notif_type=plan_user_invited.

29] – On Fri., Jan. 16 from 7 to 9:30 PM, join the Party for Socialism and Liberation at 617 Florida Ave. NW, WDC, to remember Martin Luther King and to talk about what it will take to build the next revolution, including a presentation and discussion on Dr. King's radical history and what it means for the movement today. In official commemorations of his birthday today, Martin Luther King Jr.'s ideas and positions have been stripped of their potency. He is remembered for having a dream of a “color blind” country when, in fact, he had an expansive definition of justice for Black people and all poor people. He is rarely remembered for his evolving critique of the U.S. economic system, his dedication to uplifting the poor, his opposition to the Vietnam War, and his view that mass social movements were needed to continue to transform society. Call 202-234-2828 or go to www.PSLweb.org or email dc@pslweb.org.

Serving as a platform to anyone with an idea, the open Internet empowers freedom of speech and freedom of expression and its impact on the creative community cannot be overstated. It has enabled artists to connect directly with each other and with audiences. It has eliminated the barriers of geography and taken collaborations to new levels. And it has allowed people - not corporations - to seek out the film, music and art that moves them. See https://www.facebook.com/events/423202864496293/?ref=6&ref_notif_type=plan_user_invited.

40] – On Sun., Jan. 18 at 10:30 AM at Red Emma's Bookstore Coffeehouse, 30 W.

41] – Usually, the Baltimore Ethical Society, 306 W. Franklin St., Suite 102, Baltimore 21201-4661, meets on Sundays, and generally there is a speaker and discussion from 10:30 AM to noon. On Jan. 18, the platform address is by O'Shai Robinson, facilitator, Baltimore Algebra Project, and is entitled “Empowering Students to be the Leaders of their Education.” The education system in this country is long overdue for a profound change. As laws, projects, and new innovations are implemented within schools; we often overlook the most important factor, the students. We will explore and discuss how the education system grooms students to be passive participants in their education, while wrestling with ideas of how to improve the learning experience.

Robinson has worked with the Baltimore Algebra Project since 2006 in several capacities including tutor, president, and board member. He is also a graduate of the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute, and will be receiving his Bachelor’s degree from the University of Maryland Baltimore County in Business Technology Administration and a minor degree in Music. With his work with the Baltimore Algebra Project he has helped to improve the quality of education through tutoring and organizing of students. The organization has been instrumental in extending the time limit for public transportation for students and stopping construction for city’s Youth Jail. Now the organization is rallying around the Ten Year Plan, which would ultimately close over 20 schools in the city while renovating others. Within the Clifton Park community, they are organizing people around the idea of “Black Control” over the future of the school. Call 410-581-2322 or email ask@bmorethical.org.

42] – On Sun., Jan. 18 at 11 AM, participate in a special birthday tribute and church service to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at Plymouth Congregational United Church of Christ, 5301 N. Capitol St. NE, WDC. Use this occasion to 1) worship, 2) celebrate Dr. King's birthday in a most relevant way, in light of the times in which we live, making connections between the struggle against police brutality in the U.S. and the just struggle of the Palestinian people that live and resist a brutal occupation, and 3) affirm our solidarity with our Palestinian sisters and brothers. The special guest speaker is a Pittsburgh, PA-based hip hop artist, Jasiri X, fresh and on fire from his recent travels to Ferguson and Palestine. Call at 202-723-5330 or email plymouthcongregational@yahoo.com.

43] – Librarians and Activists with Palestine is sponsoring an international “One Book” campaign, aimed at bringing people all over the world together to talk about a common book. The book which has been selected is “Mornings in Jenin,” by Susan Abulhawa, a Palestinian-American author. It is available at our libraries and on Amazon. It is a family saga through four generations of Palestinian history, starting before 1948 and ending with the invasion of Jenin in 2002. The main character is a woman named Amal, and the story takes her from before birth through adulthood. Her brother is taken from his mother's arms during the 1948 Nakba and is raised by an Israeli family. It's really the story of a Palestinian family, and through that, Israeli characters are also involved.

The Committee for Palestinian Rights is participating in this campaign, scheduled for Sun., Jan. 18 at 2 PM, and the location is David’s Natural Market Café, 5410 Lynx Lane, Columbia 21044. (Plan to arrive a bit early if you would like to have a sandwich, salad or sushi from the Cafe.)
