Originally in response to the U.S. and NATO bombings in Yugoslavia\, the vigil has continued weekly with different U.S. sanctions\, interventions\, and wars to protest. Every Wednesday for over 20 years—rain\, shine or below zero temps—activists in the Twin Cities have gathered to stand in solidarity with all those affected by U.S. militarism and to call for peace.

SUMMARY:Truth Killers: The Corporate Media and the Military-Industrial Complex
DESCRIPTION:Truth Killers: The Corporate Media and the Military-Industrial Complex \nThursday\, December 1st at 7:00pm Central Time (8:00pm Eastern Time) \nOnline Event via Zoom \nThe first casualty of war\, and militarism\, is the truth. And the corporate mainstream media works diligently hand-in-glove with the US military-industrial complex to make this happen. Through its unquestioning repetition of government propaganda\, its lies of omission\, and its ratings-hungry war mongering\, the media have become an essential part of the information war so endemic to US imperialism. \nThis webinar will describe this deadly relationship and how it has evolved to the point where virtually no dissent\, no call for peace\, no real understanding of declared adversaries is allowed. From Operation Mockingbird to CIA Director William Casey’s famous quote (“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false”)\, the control of the US public’s perceptions of its government’s role in the world has been long in the making. \nNow that we are on the brink of nuclear armageddon as a result of the US/NATO pursuit of continuous war against Russia and soon\, it appears\, with China\, it has never been more important to see through the lies fed to us from the corporate media. This webinar is a step in that direction. \nBill Astore is a retired lieutenant colonel (USAF) and professor of history. He has written for TomDispatch.com\, Truthout\, History News Network (HNN)\, Alternet\, Salon\, Antiwar.com\, and Huffington Post among other sites.  He has authored or co-authored three books and numerous articles focusing on military history as well as the history of science\, technology\, and religion.  He earned a BS (with distinction) in mechanical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute\, an MA from the Johns Hopkins University (history of science and technology)\, and a D.Phil. (doctor of philosophy) from the University of Oxford (modern history). \nDavid Swanson is an author\, activist\, journalist\, and radio host. He is executive director of World BEYOND War and campaign coordinator for RootsAction.org. Swanson’s books include War Is A Lie and When the World Outlawed War. He blogs at DavidSwanson.org and WarIsACrime.org. He hosts Talk World Radio. He is a Nobel Peace Prize Nominee. \nSwanson was awarded the 2018 Peace Prize by the U.S. Peace Memorial Foundation. He was also awarded a Beacon of Peace Award by the Eisenhower Chapter of Veterans For Peace in 2011\, and the Dorothy Eldridge Peacemaker Award by New Jersey Peace Action in 2022. Find David at MSNBC\, C-Span\, Democracy Now\, The Guardian\, Counter Punch\, Common Dreams\, Truthout\, Daily Progress\, Amazon.com\, TomDispatch\, The Hook\, etc. \nEvent organized by Massachusetts Peace Action. \nClick this link to register. \n

SUMMARY:Human Rights Day Protest
DESCRIPTION:International Human Rights Day! \nSaturday\, December 10th 2022 at 1:00 PM \n3101 S Bryant Ave\, Minneapolis 55408 \n1pm: Meet at Bryant Square Park with Uptown march to follow. \nThe U.S. uses the language of human rights to justify U.S. intervention in Ukraine and to impose sanctions on Iran\, Venezuela\, and Cuba.\n\nMeanwhile\, the U.S. government continuously refuses to act in support of the basic human rights to education\, healthcare\, housing\, and a live-able planet for our children here at home.\n\nAfter the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade\, people in the U.S. are also fighting for women’s and reproductive rights.\n\nLastly\, people of color are targeted by police and killed at an outrageous rate in their own communities.\n\nThis comes on top of longstanding U.S. wars and interventions\, which NEVER bring human rights. Instead\, they brutally subject the peoples of the world to occupation and instability while stealing their natural resources and suppressing their rights to self-determination.\n\nWe see it in Palestine\, where the U.S. encourages illegal annexations for Israeli settlers and funds the ongoing war on Palestinians.\n\nJoin with us to demand respect for human rights at home and abroad!\nInitiated by the Anti-War Committee. Co-sponsored by Women Against Military Madness.\n#InternationalHumanRightsDay

SUMMARY:January: Cuba Car Caravan Against the U.S. Blockade of Cuba/Caravana Contra el Bloqueo
DESCRIPTION:January: Cuba Car Caravan Against the U.S. Blockade of Cuba/Caravana Contra el Bloqueo \nSunday\, January 29\, 2023 At 1 PM – 3 PM \nSouth High School (Minneapolis) parking lot\, then Lake Street to Blaisdell and back to South. \nEnd the U.S. Blockade of Cuba!Take Cuba off the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism.\nJoin SCOTA\, the Minnesota Cuba Committee and others for our monthly car caravan against the US blockade of Cuba. Meet us at South High School in Minneapolis or WATCH LIVE on Facebook.\nThis month\, we’re focusing on the continuation of Cuba on the list of nations that the U.S. designates as “terrorist.”\nMore than 10\,000 people and 100 progressive advocacy groups have signed an open letter urging President Joe Biden to reverse the Trump administration’s terrorism designation for Cuba and to reinstate Obama-era policy for the island.\nThe international outcry against the U.S. intentional starvation blockade of Cuba is growing. These actions powerfully refute the U.S. claim that Marco Rubio\, Bob Menendez and Ted Cruz anti-Cuba campaign represents us.\nNow in their third year\, the public bike and car caravans that started in Miami and led by Cuban-Americans have broken up that myth. Watch this video produced by Cuban-Americans in Miami for the September 25 caravans (in Spanish with English subtitles).———————————Car caravan details:\nSouth High School parking lot\, 3131 19th Ave So\, Minneapolis12:30: Volunteer car marshal training1:00: Line up and add signs and flags to cars at South High School parking lot\, 3131 19th Ave So\, Minneapolis.

Sending folks from MN is an important act of solidarity and will bring back needed information! Help us send them to Venezuela on the upcoming Alliance for Global Justice delegation.\n\nThere will also be a silent auction so you can bid on a Valentines Day gift basket.\n\nDonations can be tax deductible and can be made out to the Anti-War Education Fund with Venezuela in the memo or made online.

DESCRIPTION:FEB 13 AT 8 AM – FEB 15 AT 6 PM \nA VALENTINE TO CUBA -MINNESOTA LOVES CUBA:\nPART OF THE CAMPAIGN TO TAKE CUBA OFF THE US STATE SPONSORS OF TERRORISM LIST.\\n\n\nCall-in days from Feb. 13-15 – messages for President Biden and Senators Klobuchar and Smith\nWe will provide phone numbers and scripts closer to the dates of the call in days. You can find this information on this Facebook post.\nBackground information:\n\nSCOTA is committed to support Cuba building a peaceful and prosperous future. We oppose intervention in Cuba by the United States. One way to support a brighter future for Cuba is to take action against Cuba being on the US State Sponsors of Terrorism list.\n\nNine days before leaving office\, Trump designated Cuba a State Sponsor of Terrorism. Two years later\, Biden has kept Cuba on the terrorism blacklist. Ironically\, Cuba has been a victim of U.S.-based terrorism — not a sponsor of terrorism. There is no credible evidence to support the designation\, which is aimed to devastate Cuba’s economy by cutting it off from international credit and investment.by being on the list\, the resulting sanctions and international restrictions limit Cuba’s ability to purchase medicines for its population and to reboot its economy after the COVID pandemic. The Cuban people are the ones who suffer from these restrictions.\nPresident Biden can unilaterally remove Cuba from the United States list of state sponsors of terrorism by an executive order. We can urge Senators Klobuchar and Smith and our congressional delegation to advocate with President Biden to remove Cuba from the list. Most importantly we must demand that President Biden remove Cuba from this list.\n\nPlease join SCOTA campaign to take Cuba off the list and support the Cuban people. Our campaign will take place in February to show the love of Minnesotans for the Cuban people.

SUMMARY:Neoliberal Apartheid And Imperial Policing With Andy Clarno
DESCRIPTION:SATURDAY\, FEBRUARY 25\, 2023 AT 10 AM – 11:30 AM\nOnline Event\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/…/reg…/WN_Q46038RMTUiSLbI5CuwRrg\n\nAs apartheid becomes a popular framework for analyzing Palestine/Israel today\, a look at the limits of liberation in “post-apartheid” South Africa challenges us rethink the definition of what apartheid is and when it ends. Against the dominant definition of apartheid\, the radical wing of the South African liberation movement offered an alternative understanding of apartheid as a system of racial capitalism. Rethinking apartheid with this lens helps us understand extreme inequality\, racialized poverty\, and militarized policing in South Africa\, Palestine/Israel\, and the United States today. Because neoliberal apartheid regimes are highly unstable social formations\, policing becomes ever more essential to the maintenance of social order. Professor Clarno analyzes the policing in Johannesburg\, Jerusalem\, and Chicago by tracing the circulation of knowledge and technology through networks of private and state security forces that coordinate to protect the powerful by policing the racialized poor.\n\nAndy Clarno is associate professor of Sociology and Black Studies and coordinator of the Policing in Chicago Research Group at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He is the author of Neoliberal Apartheid: Palestine/Israel and South Africa after 1994 (University of Chicago Press 2017).\nPlease direct questions about this event to mepn@mepn.org.\n\nThank you to our forum sponsors\, Northfielders for Justice in Palestine and Israel
