Peace Camp: heal, learn & decolonize!

Screen_Shot_2017-08-16_at_3.33.35_PM.png

The past ten months of organizing have taught me the necessities of healing & embodying a culture of accountability, relationality, and love. Join me August 26-27 at CODEPINK’s Peace Camp in Sonoma County to learn how femme organizers have taken a decolonial approach in their peace building work.

Not sure what a decolonial practice of organizing or coalition building means? No problem! I have invited friends and organizers to share with us on the “Just Transition” and “Accomplices not Allies” sessions on Saturday & Sunday to explore these ideas.  Ohlone leader Johnella La Rose will speak on indigenous history of the Bay Area and welcome us to the land we will be occupying. Toni Cervantes and Irene Montantes will share their work from Standing Rock to the divestment movement to the initiative for a public bank in Los Angeles. Mianta Mcknight of Justice Now will model what a just transition to local peace economies looks like in practice in the reentry processes for people coming out of California women's prisons. Rebecca Merton will speak about Community Initiatives to Visit Immigrants in Confinement (CIVIC)’s cutting-edge work to shine a light on human rights violations in immigrant detention centers.

I hope you can join us, there is much to learn, share, discuss, and put into practice and action! Register for CODEPINK’s Peace Camp here!

Of course, there will be tons more offerings from the CODEPINK team about current & future campaigns, and more special, amazing guests!

In solidarity, peace, and love,
Paula Kahn and the CODEPINK Team
