40] – Jewish Voice for Peace is doing a Power Half-Hour for Gaza: Channel grief & outrage into action to stop a genocide. A year into the genocide in Gaza, we are overwhelmed with sorrow and rage. There are no words to describe the devastating pain of the past year in which the Israeli military has killed over 44,000 Palestinians in Gaza, including more than 17,000 children. The International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court have both declared that Israel must stop the genocidal acts being committed on the Palestinian people. And the U.S. government is actively supporting the Israeli military as it wreaks devastation on the over 2 million Palestinians in Gaza. JVP continues to come together as a political community in its daily half-hour to take action, Monday through Friday, for the past year. Join in and take collective action to demand an arms embargo to Israel, immediate end to the genocide, a lasting ceasefire and an end to Israeli siege, apartheid, occupation, and oppression of Palestinians and Lebanon. All are welcome. All are needed. Get involved at 3 PM ET on Wed., April 9, Thurs., April 10, Tues., April 15 & Wed., April 16.

44] – The Indivisible Team [info@indivisible.org] on Wed., April 9 at 6:30 PM ET thinks you might want to help combat disinformation with the Indivisible Truth Brigade. Disinformation thrives in our overwhelming “attention economy,” where human attention is the most valuable resource driving profit and political outcomes. Algorithms and sensationalism exploit our emotional responses, luring truth-seekers into false narratives. In a society where sound decision-making depends on access to accurate information, inattention poses a serious threat. Discuss how to protect truth, combat misinformation, and restore focus on what matters most in today's media landscape. RSVP at https://indivisible.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_V5RtTbdvQLmtXGyN8wfmIw?_x_zm_rtaid=amRLg9iHRYC5s228PAPkOQ.1744158950674.181199958c255b8623ef069dfc2ebeca&_x_zm_rhtaid=157#/registration
