February at CODEPINK: Fear
Will Not Stop Us
January 2025 saw the second
inauguration of Donald Trump and the beginning of his presidential
rampage. And yet—our work continues, and our communities both
domestically and abroad need our commitment now more than ever. As we
approach Valentine’s Day, have
a heart for the healthcare workers from Palestine to Cuba who work tirelessly
to save lives despite living under imperialist conditions. As we build
a world of peace, diplomacy, and love, join us this month for urgent
trainings, webinars, and action opportunities!
👇 Scroll down to join CODEPINK for a packed month of
community events and more!
Onward toward peace and justice,
Jasmine and the
entire CODEPINK team
PS: Sign up to organize
with us and we will reach out to you for a
one-on-one. For questions, or to have local CODEPINK events
posted, email me.

Inauguration Week Actions
We took to the streets during the inauguration week, bringing
the message of peace and the urgent need to end the funding of wars
and move the money to the needs of the people. Let's take a look at
some mobilizations throughout the country!

|
Our DC team
kicked off the days of action by joining the People’s
March for Peace, Justice, and Equality. |
|
In NYC,
thousands came together for their own We Fight Back
March and rally, where we joined the anti-imperialist
feminist contingent! |
|
|
|
|
While the extreme
weather forced actions in Chicago to be rescheduled, we were still
able to show up for peace and liberation later in the week! |

ICE has no place in our neighborhoods! Know Your Rights!
For too long, the U.S has failed to be a good neighbor
fueling displacement through military interventions, economic warfare
and sanctions that harm everyday people in countries like Cuba,
Venezuela and Nicaragua. Instead of being a good neighbor, the U.S
criminalizes those fleeing these conditions. We refuse
to let our neighbors be terrorized!
This toolkit provides the resources needed to resist ICE
raids, protect immigrant neighbors, and take action against
deportation policies.
Check
out our toolkit!
