38] – Maria DeLiberato
[info@fadp.org] is very upset as the executions in the USA continue. She wants you to know about International
Wrongful Conviction Day which is aimed to raise awareness of the causes and
remedies of wrongful conviction and to recognize the tremendous personal,
social, and emotional costs of wrongful conviction for innocent people and
their families. Wrongful Conviction Day began as an effort of the Innocence
Network, an affiliation of organizations dedicated to providing pro-bono legal
and investigative services to individuals seeking to prove innocence of crimes
for which they have been convicted, working to redress the causes of wrongful
convictions, and supporting the exonerated after they are freed. October 2,
2024 marks the eleventh Annual Wrongful Conviction Day. This year's theme is
The Pursuit of Truth. Visit https://wrongfulconvictionday.org/?link_id=2&can_id=4b9d4061aec5469758759317ac0f5285&source=email-a-deadly-month&email_referrer=email_2474735&email_subject=a-deadly-month
39] – The Reaching Critical Will, Environment, and Women, Peace and Security programs of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom recently published a report investigating the nexus between the nuclear and fossil fuel industries, and state repression of activism against these industries. Titled 'Petrobromance,' Nuclear Priesthood, and Police Repression: Feminist Confrontations of Violent Industries, and Movements to Abolish Them, the report analyzes trends and parallels in how the nuclear and fossil fuel industries operate and entrench their power, and the ways resistance against these industries is suppressed by police, militaries, and private military and security companies. Join in for a conversation about its findings on Wed., Oct. 2 at 9:30 AM ET.

People’s Action has a vision for the future in which we all have a say, we all have what we need, and we all belong.

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. These calls will continue through Sat., Oct. 19 from 3 to 6 PM ET.

– On
Wed., Oct. 2 from 8
to 8:30
PM ET, join Swing Left for
a volunteer orientation. This orientation will continue through Oct. 30 at 8 PM
ET. Take on MAGA extremism—and win—in 2024, and
beyond! During the 30-minute orientation, share the most effective volunteer
options. Extremism has taken root and is now thriving in the Republican Party.
This emboldened GOP is attacking democracy itself—designing extreme legislative
gerrymanders, rigging the courts, attempting to subvert election results, and
stripping away the democratic voice of the people—in order to lock in permanent
minority rule. Swing Left has the
tools, programs, and community infrastructure to help you get involved
strategically in whatever way you can, no matter where you are on your civic
engagement journey. RSVP at https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/616746/?followup_modal_context=nonexclusive_newsletter_most_popular_virtual
