John,
Join us TODAY at 5pm ET / 4pm CT / 3pm MT / 2pm PT for a critical conversation on why we must dismantle U.S. militarism, divest from the militarized budget, and reclaim our resources to invest in communities [[link removed]] !
Twenty years after 9/11, the war on terror has remade the United States into a far more militarized actor, both around the world and at home.
Our new report [[link removed]] finds that over the last two decades the U.S. has spent more than $21 trillion on militarization, surveillance, and repression — all in the name of security.
But instead of making our communities more secure, this racist spending produces needless violence, destruction, and harm. It also diverts resources from services that respond to our communities’ real needs.
Join us for this critical conversation tonight! [[link removed]]

The U.S. has been in a #StateOfInsecurity for 20 years now, spending over $21 trillion on militarization since 9/11 .
Here's what that funded— and what we could reinvest instead.
