Divest Your City
Around the world, we're campaigning to divest cities from weapons and war. Public funds shouldn't be propping up death and destruction. Our grassroots campaigners are collecting petition signatures, forming city-wide coalitions, and meeting with their elected officials to call for divestment from war and reinvestment in life-affirming sectors, like healthcare, education, and renewable energy. This summer, thanks to WBW's campaign, Charlottesville divested the city operating budget from weapons and fossil fuels. Is your city next? Email us at [email protected] to get started.

Today, U.S. residents should call District Offices of Congress Members and urge Representatives to co-sponsor House Resolution 152 for a formal end to the Korean War. Hasn't it been long enough?
