SUMMARY:Union Maids Film

Union Maids was the opening night film in a documentary festival in Cuba in 2023. The screening was dedicated to Julia Reichert\, who died in 2022. \nDirectors: Julia Reichert\, Jim Klein\, Miles Mogulescu \nNew Day Films | US | 1977 \nConnecting the dots…discussion \nAlways FREE and open to the public\nALL ARE WELCOME!

SUMMARY:Voices from the Holy Land Online Film Salon: "Israeli Apartheid in Action: Water Control"
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, March 17\, 2024\, 2:00 pm\, Online\, Click here to register \nControlling the supply\, distribution\, and cost of water to an occupied people is apartheid in action. Israel\, through legal and illegal means\, maintains near-complete control over the region’s freshwater aquifers\, severely restricting Palestinians’ abilities to drill wells\, install pumps\, build water tanks\, or even collect rainwater. The average Israeli consumes over 3 times the water used by each Palestinian on the water grid in the West Bank (9 times the water used by those off the grid). West Bank Palestinians pay 1/3 or more of their income to Israeli companies for drinking water. Meanwhile\, Gazans are now consuming less than 3 liters per day—hardly enough for survival. \nVFHL offers three short videos describing the “hydropolitics” and structural water apartheid in the Holy Land. Our panel discussion will explore designed inequalities in water distribution; the physical\, economic and regulatory controls; as well as the ecological problems of pollution and over-extraction. \nRegister below and join us on March 17 at 2:00 PM Central for a discussion of the water crisis throughout Palestine\, with: \n– Nancy Murray – Co-founder of Alliance for Water Justice in Palestine \n– Mazin Qumsiyeh – Director of the Palestine Institute for Biodiversity and Sustainability \n– Eyal Hareuveni – Author of “Parched: Israel’s Policy of Water Deprivation in the West Bank” \nOur moderator will be Jeff Halper\, Israeli-American anthropologist\, author\, lecturer\, and political activist; founder of Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD) and a co-founder of The One Democratic State Campaign (ODSC)(invited). \nNOTE: After you register\, you will immediately get an Approved response – BUT then look in your email for an email From: Zoom with the word “Confirmation” at the end of the subject line…there you’ll find the link and password to watch the film in advance of the Salon event.

SUMMARY:Twin Cities Gaza Ceasefire Pilgrimage
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, March 23\, 2024\, 6:00 AM – 8:00 PM\, Starting point at Brooklyn Park River Park \nThis Lent\, a global movement is walking in prayerful solidarity with the people of Gaza.\nOn Saturday\, March 23rd\, come walk\, pray\, and sing with us as we journey along the Mississippi.\nView the full event page here: https://www.peacecatalyst.org/gcpilgrimage\n—————\nWant to walk with us? Register here: https://forms.gle/N6jM4GJa281DRuFr5\nWant to volunteer? Sign up here: https://forms.gle/pTfbHhAxFSLKGkhj7\nDoes your church or organization want to sponsor? Sign up here: https://forms.gle/DREX9aSC5N3y75SJ9\n————–\nThe Pilgrimage Route:\nMap of route from Brooklyn Park River Park to Savage Nature Center near Bdote: https://maps.app.goo.gl/VgbagWAdHUBR3z627\nThe Twin Cities Gaza Ceasefire Pilgrimage will begin at sunrise at Brooklyn Park River Park and head south along the Mississippi River. Our prayerful\, nonviolent walk will follow paved\, accessible paths along River Road\, making stops at Kroening Nature Center\, Boom Island Park\, Minnehaha Falls\, and churches along the route. At times the route will cross over the Mississippi\, staying near the river as a reminder of the Gazan coast.\nThe pilgrimage will end near Bdote\, the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers. This site is not only sacred to the Dakota people as the location of the Dakota creation story; it is also a site of historic trauma\, where many Dakota were interned and died in a concentration camp following the U.S.-Dakota War of 1862. The sacred Indigenous sites along the route are a reminder that our pilgrimage takes place against a backdrop of violent settler colonialism perpetrated by European Americans in the United States. As we journey in solidarity with Gaza\, we also recommit ourselves to the work of healing justice with the Indigenous people of Mni Sota Makoce.\nThe full Twin Cities pilgrimage route approximates the mere 22 miles from Gaza City in the north of Gaza\, to Rafah in the south. Hundreds of thousands of Gazan civilians were forced to navigate this distance last fall\, fleeing violence and following Israel’s false promise of safety from bombardment and combat. Our pilgrimage will take the full day until sunset to allow time for breaks\, prayer and song\, meals\, and the inclusion of people of all abilities and ages.\nThis route brings home the geography of the horror taking place in Gaza\, where only the distance between Brooklyn Park and Fort Snelling encompasses the entire geographic area of Gaza. In a single day\, our pilgrimage and our bodies will map the reality that no place within Gaza is safe for the 2 million displaced civilians surviving without shelter from aggression and deprivation for the past 140+ days.\n———\nSchedule (subject to change):\n– 6am — Gather\n– 6:30am-7am — Sunrise Service at Brooklyn Park River Park\n– 7am-9am — Brooklyn Park River Park to Carl W. Kroening Nature Center (4.7 miles)\n– 9:30am-11:30am — Kroening Nature Center to Boom Island Park (4.2 miles)\n– 11:45am-1:30pm — Boom Island Park to Faith Mennonite Church (4 miles)\n– 1:30pm-2:30pm — Singing and Lunch for Pilgrims at Faith Mennonite Church\n– 2:30pm-3:30pm — Faith Mennonite Church to 176 N Mississippi River Blvd\, St. Paul (2.1 miles)\n– 3:30pm-3:45pm — Activity at 176 N Mississippi River Blvd\n– 3:45pm-5:15pm — 176 N Mississippi River Blvd to Minnehaha Falls (3.3 miles)\n– 5:45pm-7pm — Minnehaha Falls to Thomas C. Savage Visitor Center\, Ft. Snelling (2.7 miles)\n– 7pm-8pm — Closing Ceremony and Food — Thomas C. Savage Visitor Center\, Ft. Snelling\nJoin us for the whole journey\, a section of the journey\, or at stops along the way!\n———————\nWhat do we want:\n1. Enduring and Sustained Ceasefire.\n2. Immediate flow of life saving food\, water\, aid\, fuel and humanitarian assistance.\n3. Release of all hostages – both the Israeli hostages held by Hamas – and the Palestinian hostages held in the Israeli prison system.\n4. End of occupation so a just-peace can begin.\nFor more information on the global movement\, visit https://www.gazaceasefirepilgrimage.com/

SUMMARY:Vigil to End War
DESCRIPTION:The Vigil to End War is sponsored by the WAMM End War Committee (EWC). \nThe EWC is dedicated to ending U.S. involvement in war\, the threats of war\, and the production\, sale and use of the weapons of war. \nPlease wear a mask and maintain social distance! \nEvery Wednesday at the the Lake Street/Marshall Avenue Bridge \n4:00 pm – 5:00 pm (After April 3\, 2024 – 5:00-6:00 PM) \nSigns provided or bring your own. Check the WAMM calendar and Facebook events pages for special themes for the day! \nSponsored by the End War Committee \nIn 1999\, WAMM’s End War Committee partnered with other local activist groups to initiate a weekly vigil on the Lake Street and Marshal Avenue bridge in St.Paul. 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.
