CODEPINK in
October!
Education, Treats & More! 🎃🪄
Dear John!
Welcome to October at CODEPINK! In the past week, the white
house released a widely repressive directive targeting movement
groups, nonprofits, and anyone who dares exercise their free speech
rights to criticize our government's five-hundred year history of
genocidal violence and inequality. We will not be silenced, we will
not back down, and will continue our fight for a Free Palestine, for
an end to U.S. Imperialism, and for the beginning of a world centered
on peace and diplomacy.
For over 23 years, CODEPINK and our movement partners have
organized against every U.S. led war, invasion, sanctions, and other
measures that target the world's most vulnerable while securing
resources for this empire.
Promoting peace is never the most popular position—but with
your support, we're making peace popular and uniting people around the
planet in our belief that no one deserves to live a life under falling
bombs or manufactured scarcity. Join us this month — we have ample
opportunities to learn, take action, and connect with fellow
peacemakers working to build the world we want to live in.
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.

Defence in London, England, British High Commission in Nicosia,
Cyprus, and in Reno, Nevada, as well as

No Apples For Genocide!
Thank you to everyone who joined us from across the globe to say No
Apples for Genocide! Apple is deeply complicit in the genocide
in Palestine as well as the systematic atrocities occurring in the
Congo. In partnership with Apples Against Apartheid, we are calling
for an end to the despicable labor practices facilitated by Apple and
for the full accountability of their complicity!
Take
Action! No Apples for Genocide!

China Is Not Our Enemy:
A History
By: Megan Russell, CODEPINK's China Is Not Our Enemy
Coordinator
Six years ago, CODEPINK co-founder Jodie Evans launched a new
campaign called “China Is Not Our Enemy.” As a seasoned peace
activist, she had already begun to recognize the seeds of war being
planted. Almost two decades ago, the United States declared Iraq an
enemy and launched an intensive media campaign to convince the
American public that an invasion was necessary. Trillions of dollars
and millions of deaths later, the invasion left nothing but
devastation and instability behind. And it was all based on a lie.

Ready to Go Deeper? 📚📣
Alongside our unwavering commitment to the liberation of
Palestine, CODEPINK is fighting on several other fronts to dismantle
the war machine: from challenging harmful narratives about China to
exposing the Pentagon’s bloated budget, from standing in solidarity
with Latin America to highlighting the environmental cost of
war.
But how do these struggles connect to Palestine? And why are they
all essential to ending U.S. imperialism?
Each campaign will take a 2-WEEK deep dive filled
with webinars, radio shows, educational resources and action
steps! You’ll also get to know each of our campaign organizers
and discover how each fight is a piece of the same struggle: a world
free from war, oppression, and empire.
You MUST RSVP to receive all these materials and
MORE!
