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 58,000 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. 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., Aug. 13, Thurs., Aug. 14, Mon., Aug. 18

47] – Get over to One Million Rising: Strategic Non-Cooperation to Fight Authoritarianism, a virtual event, on Wed., Aug. 13 from 8 to 9:30 PM ET. Across the country, authoritarian forces are getting bolder and more dangerous. Trump and his allies are not hiding their agenda: mass deportations, rollbacks of civil rights, weaponized courts, and full-scale attacks on our democracy. This summer, One Million Rising will be launched—a national effort to train one million people in the strategic logic and practice of non-cooperation, as well as the basics of community organizing and campaign design. This is how to build people power that can’t be ignored. In Session 3, you'll get plugged into the next national campaign work, and your second community resistance gathering afterward will move this action forward.
