JODIE EVANS ON PEACE ECONOMY VS. WAR ECONOMY

In an event hosted by the Praxis Peace Institute, Jodie Evans will talk about the Divest from the War Machine campaign, and how we can grow a local peace economy and explore the difference between an economy that supports peace and one that has war on default mode. Check out this great piece in the Sonoma Index-Tribune about Jodie, as it lays the groundwork for her presentation.

When: Sunday, December 10 at 4pm
Where: Sonoma Community Center @ Serres Hall, 276 E. Napa St., Sonoma, CA 95476

COMMUNITY TEACH-IN ABOUT URBAN SHIELD

Interested in learning about what Urban Shield is, the work of the coalition, and how to get involved? SURJ San Francisco will be hosting a public Community Meeting on Policing and Urban Shield. There will be time to hear about what organizing against Urban Shield has looked like, next steps, and how you can support us in achieving a people's victory over Urban Shield. We encourage community members in San Francisco to attend this gathering so that we can all be well informed and best positioned to organize and win.

When: Wednesday, December 13 from 7-9pm
Where: ACLU Northern California Office, 39 Drumm St., San Francisco, CA 94111
Contact Eleanor to RSVP

In peace and solidarity,
