CODEPINK in
November!
Education, Actions, & More!🍂🍁
Dear John!
Welcome to November, peacemakers! As we near the end of
another year of organizing for peace, we feel a renewed sense of
purpose, as the work of eliminating the war economy is never done.
In the past month, as we witnessed Israel break another
ceasefire, the occupation
of Al Fashir and subsequent
massacres in Sudan, and U.S. military
escalation against Venezuela, many of us are feeling the pressure to
increase our commitment to organizing our way out of U.S.
imperialism.
Join us this month for ample opportunities to engage with
CODEPINK through our working groups, Cut The Pentagon action weeks,
and in-person actions in cities across the
country.
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.

Rise Up For Gaza! Global Days Of Action
Thank you to everyone who joined the Global Day of Action on
Saturday, October 4th and local actions on Tuesday, October 7th to
mark two years of genocide of the Palestinian people.
Together, we confronted those in our cities who are
co-signing this ongoing massacre with our own tax dollars. Many of us
also protested the intensified criminalization of our neighbors by ICE
and the National Guard. We were reminded that we all have the same
enemy: militarization and
war. Thus, we are linking arms across the globe, building
solidarity day in and day out.

When Maria Corina
Machado Wins the Nobel Peace Prize, “Peace” Has Lost Its Meaning.
By: Michelle Ellner, CODEPINK's Latin America Campaign
Coordinator
When I saw the headline Maria Corina Machado wins
the Peace Prize, I almost laughed at the absurdity. But I
didn’t, because there’s nothing funny about rewarding someone whose
politics have brought so much suffering. Anyone who knows what she
stands for knows there’s nothing remotely peaceful about her
politics.

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?
Join CODEPINK for our Anti-Imperialist Campaign Series’s
focus on our Cut the Pentagon campaign to learn more about the
upcoming trillion-dollar Pentagon budget and what we can do to
redirect funds for death and destruction to resources for healthcare,
education, housing, and climate justice!
RSVP for our Cut the Pentagon Campaign Action
Series!
