  • What Abolishing Militaries Includes

    “Abolition” isn’t just a fun word to say. “I want to abolish prisons” doesn’t just mean that you think there are too many prisons and they are too horrible. “Abolish the police” isn’t just a hip way to say “I’m angry at abuse by police.” Abolishing something means eliminating it entirely, which often also means […]

  • With “Friends” Like this Peace Movement Doesn’t Need Enemies

    Why did Steven Staples join Pierre Poilievre, Justin Trudeau and other genocide promoters in smearing an anti-NATO demonstration as “antisemitic”?

    October’s Surprise Party

    As another October approaches, the beautiful season of colors begins here in New England. Call it October’s Surprise Party. The turning leaves with all their colors come to announce the earth’s glory, the possibility of peace and happiness for all.

    Protest at the White House, March 18, Against US Proxy War in Ukraine

    On March 18, protesters will gather at the White House to call for an end to Joe Biden’s cruel proxy war. “Cruel” is the operative word, because the war cynically uses Ukrainians as cannon fodder to weaken Russia and bring about regime change. We should all be there – or at one of the 5 […]

  • Defending the Weelaunee Forest
