Over the coming weeks, reach out to voters in critical states to share this vision with them and invite them to join us in working towards it. The next phone bank at 5 PM ET is on Tues., Oct. 1.

Margaret Kwateng from Grassroots Global Justice Alliance will moderate a discussion with Maurice Carney (Friends of the Congo), Aisha Mansour (Honor the Earth), and Monaeka "Naek" Flores (Pruheti Litekyan. This event is part of the Global Week of Action for Peace and Climate Justice. Colonial violence - and the militarized legacies that persist today - are at the root of global inequality, ecological devastation, and perpetual conflict that is driving the triple planetary crisis. Despite the increasing threat that climate change poses to all life on earth, the US government alone aims to spend nearly $1 trillion this year on the Pentagon budget. This panel, co-hosted by 350.org and the National Priorities Project at the Institute for Policy Studies, will discuss how ongoing militarization in the Middle East, the Pacific, and on the African continent intersect, how Indigenous communities resisting colonial exploitation are the frontline against the climate crisis, and why environmental justice is key to our collective security.
