SUMMARY:Aloha Maui Benefit Concert
DESCRIPTION:The community is invited to the Historic Ashland Armory this Sunday\, September 17 for the “Aloha Maui Benefit Concert” to support Lahaina wildfire victims. \nEntry fees range from $20 to $100 depending on how much you want to donate and all profits will go directly to victims in Maui through United Way of Jackson County. \n“For a lot of people\, when they’re giving small amounts and helping\, what it does is give people a feeling that they’ve had something to do with the recovery\,” said Greg Frederick with The Rogue Suspects. “And I think especially with some of the disasters we’ve suffered here\, I think people feel like they’d like to give back.” \nSeveral of our favorite Southern Oregon music groups will be performing\, including The Rogue Suspects\, Alice Di Michele\, Petty Thievery\, HA’ENA and Fret Drifters. \nThis is an all-ages event with food provided by Gather and wine from Dos Mariposas Vineyard. \nDoors open at 5:30 pm for the silent auction and refreshments. Live music starts at 7:00 pm and goes until 11:00 pm. \nIf you’re interested in donating items for the silent auction\, you can drop them off at the Ashland Armory anytime after 12:00 pm on September 17th. To donate money via GoFundMe\, click on this link. \nTo buy tickets ahead of time\, please visit the Aloha Maui website.

SUMMARY:SOCAN: What’s Happening to our Douglas firs?
DESCRIPTION:Anyone spending time in the dryer forests of Southern Oregon will have seen the splashes of orange among the healthy green backdrop. These splashes of color portend our future; they represent Douglas firs that are expiring. As the trees die\, the needles lose the healthy green chlorophyll that drives photosynthesis and produce the familiar orange splashes that increasingly dot the skyline of our hills.Extension Forester\, OSU (retired) Max Bennett has been studying this phenomenon for some years. \nBennett will provide an account of his findings and conclusions during the next Southern Oregon Climate Action Now monthly open public meeting. The program will occur on Tuesday August 29 th at 6:00 pm at the Medford Public Library. The presentation is free and open to the public.

Non-reserved tickets available at Paddington Station\, 125 E Main St in Ashland\, or at the door. \n “We are better together!” – Information on both sister cities for Ashland can be found at ashland.or.us/SisterCity.\nThe Ashland City Council unanimously approved a sister city partnership with Sviatohirs’k\, Ukraine\, at the June 20\, 2023\, Council meeting. The relationship will support humanitarian aid and fundraising efforts within the Ashland community. The approved partnership authorized Mayor Tonya Graham to sign a Memorandum of Understanding that memorializes the relationship between Sviatohirs’k and Ashland and offers support amidst unimaginable suffering and dire conditions faced by our brothers and sisters of Ukraine. \nThe new sister city relationship will involve various reciprocal activities in education\, the arts and business\, such as exchange programs\, scholarships\, cultural events\, language training programs and potential business partnerships – Much like the relationship the City of Ashland has shared with their other sister city\, Guanajuato\, for over 50 years. However\, due to the devastation of Sviatohirs’k by Russian occupation in 2022\, the immediate goal will be to aid the new sister city. The Ashland–Sviatohirs’k Aid Project (ASAP) will be vital in this effort. \n“The city was 70% destroyed by the Russians\,” stated Ben Stott\, who has been leading the effort to form the new sister city relationship. “They were occupied for four months. When they (Russians) left\, they stole pretty much everything. They cleaned out the hospital. They just wiped out everything and stole it\, and so what we’re hoping to do through fundraising and public awareness is to help them rebuild the civic infrastructure so that they can get a working government again so people will start to move back to the city\,” Stott said. Graham added that she spoke with the Mayor of Sviatohirsk’s about the destruction of many parts of the Ukrainian city\, but the Ukrainian Mayor emphasized there is hope in the future of reciprocating the relationship with Ashland. But right now\, resources are needed.

SUMMARY:No Way To Treat A Child: American Friends Service Committee
DESCRIPTION:Please join the #nowaytotreatachild campaign co-leaders from Defense for Children International – Palestine and American Friends Service Committee for a webinar on July 25 at 12 p.m. Eastern / 9 a.m. Pacific / 5 p.m. BST.  \nPalestinian rights organizers\, activists\, and advocates across the United States have been busy working to advance the Palestinian Children and Families Act\, H.R. 3103\, which aims to prohibit Israel from using U.S. taxpayer funds to detain and torture Palestinian children\, demolish or seize Palestinian homes and property\, and further annex the occupied West Bank. During this webinar\, several special guests will share their experiences advocating for Palestinian rights in the U.S. and share tips for how you can make progress with your elected officials. \nBackground \nApproximately 2.9 million Palestinians live in the occupied West Bank\, of which around 45 percent are children under the age of 18. \nPalestinian children in the West Bank\, like adults\, face arrest\, prosecution\, and imprisonment under an Israeli military detention system that denies them basic rights. \nSince 1967\, Israel has operated two separate legal systems in the same territory. In the occupied West Bank\, Israeli settlers are subject to the civilian and criminal legal system whereas Palestinians live under military law. \nIsrael applies civilian criminal law to Palestinian children in East Jerusalem. No Israeli child comes into contact with the military courts. \nIsrael has the dubious distinction of being the only country in the world that automatically and systematically prosecutes children in military courts that lack fundamental fair trial rights and protections. Israel prosecutes between 500 and 700 Palestinian children in military courts each year. \nIll-treatment in the Israeli military detention system remains “widespread\, systematic\, and institutionalized throughout the process\,” according to the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) report Children in Israeli Military Detention Observations and Recommendations. \nChildren typically arrive to interrogation bound\, blindfolded\, frightened\, and sleep deprived. \nChildren often give confessions after verbal abuse\, threats\, physical and psychological violence that in some cases amounts to torture. \nIsraeli military law provides no right to legal counsel during interrogation\, and Israeli military court judges seldom exclude confessions obtained by coercion or torture. \nABOUT #NOWAYTOTREATACHILD’S WEBINARS AND ZOOM:\nFor this webinar\, we will be using the Zoom platform. Additional instructions and details for joining the webinar will be shared by email with individuals that have registered. \nWHEN \nJuly 25\, 2023 at 12:00pm – 1pm \nWHERE \nOnline via Zoom \nCONTACT \nBrad Parker · info@nowaytotreatachild.org

SUMMARY:Back from the Brink & Rep. Jim McGovern: Growing Support for Nuclear Abolition
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to folks from around the country\, more members of the U.S. House of Representatives are co-sponsoring H. Res. 77\, a vitally important Back from the Brink (BftB)-led organizing vehicle that is helping to elevate congressional debate and leadership on nuclear disarmament and risk reduction. \nPersistence and patience are key. Let’s keep it up. \nPlease join Back from the Brink and Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA) via Zoom on Wednesday\, May 31st at 5pm PT for Growing Support for Nuclear Abolition\, an important discussion about H. Res. 77 and how we can get more members of Congress to make diplomacy\, arms control and nuclear abolition a priority—and how you can be involved. \nAs a reminder\, H. Res. 77 calls on the United States to embrace the goals and provisions of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) and to adopt BftB’s five point policy agenda to prevent nuclear war and achieve a world free of nuclear weapons. \nHave you urged your U.S. House member to co-sponsor yet? See our H. Res. 77 resources page for helpful information. \nThe May 31st Zoom discussion will be an opportunity to get Rep. McGovern’s insights and perspectives on the Congressional landscape and ways we can all be most helpful. It’ll also be an opportunity to share what activists are hearing from members of Congress\, answer frequently asked questions about H. Res. 77 and to learn about BftB’s plans for the summer and fall. \nREGISTER NOW \nCan’t join us on May 31st and yet still want to learn more or connect with BftB?

SUMMARY:SOCAN Monthly Meeting: Curb Food Waste for the Climate
DESCRIPTION:Southern Oregon Climate Action Now (SOCAN) will feature guest speakers and a discussion about what people can do to help curb food waste in Southern Oregon March 28 at 6:00 p.m. online. \nIn 2022\, the U.S. department of Agriculture stated: “Food loss and waste … exacerbates the climate crisis with its significant GHG footprint. Production\, transportation\, and handling of food generate significant carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions\, and when food ends up in landfills\, it generates methane\, [which is] an even more potent greenhouse gas.” \nA 2021 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency report concluded that “each year\, U.S. food loss and waste embodies 170 million metric tons of climate pollution– equal to the annual CO2 emissions of 42 coal-fired power plants.” This doesn’t even take landfill methane into account. \nTo learn more about food waste and what we can do to address it\, join Southern Oregon Climate Action Now (SOCAN) at their March 28th General Meeting online from 6:00 to 7:00pm. This month’s topic is “Food Waste and the Climate Crisis: What to Know & What to Do” with featured speakers Flavia Franco of Southern Oregon Food Solutions\, Jeanette Hardison of the Corvallis Sustainability Coalition\, and Ellie Cosgrove of Rogue Valley Farm 2 School. \nThere is no charge for joining the ZOOM meeting\, but participants must register at the link on the SOCAN calendar event: socan.eco/food-waste. \nIn response to the food waste problem April 10 – 16 has been designated as ‘Food Waste Prevention Week’ nationwide. In order to raise awareness and to engage with folks about solutions. Oregon’s Department of Environmental Quality is a sponsor of this campaign.

We’ll start each event with a short presentation on that day’s topic\, followed by a live Q&A with those watching. \nHave any questions or ideas for future conversations? Drop us a line\, and we hope to see you virtually during our next livestream! \nMissed our prior Let’s Talk About Hanford conversations? Check them out on YouTube.

SUMMARY:Feb 4 Rogue Basin Water Action Community Event
DESCRIPTION:2023 Kick-off Event
 Saturday\, February 4\, 2023 at 9 AM to Noon at the Medford Public Library’s Large Meeting Room\nat 205 S. Central Avenue. \nThe event is free and open to everyone. \nThe Water Action Community flows from the ideas brought forth during SOPA’s Rogue Valley Water Solutions Summit last fall. Water League\, which engages the public Water stewardship\, is collaborating with SOPA to support the next steps that individuals and action groups can take to make a difference in the Rogue Basin. \nMore than 200 people\, including Indigenous wisdom keepers\, panelists from across the state of Oregon\, and citizens concerned for the efficient and beneficial use of the Rogue Valley’s water met over the course of the 6-part Water Solutions Summit series. \nFour action teams (cohorts) emerged from the summit that are critical to the health and well-being of our valley’s water. The format for February 4 will include an examination of “What is” and “What could be.” \nThe action-driven cohorts will explore: \nRights of Nature\, Indigenous Perspectives\, and the Public Trust Doctrine\nFunding\, Legislation\, Water Rights\, and Water Law\nEquity for Aquifers\, Agriculture\, Wetlands and Waterways\nWater Equity for Domestic\, Industrial\, and Commercial Uses \nDuring the Water Action Community – 2023 Launch on February 4\, folks can sign up for one or more cohorts they’d like to join and then enter a breakout session during which each team will meet to: \n\nPlan its regular meeting schedule\,\nBegin formulating its mission and\nBrainstorm a few goals  to achieve to pursue that mission.\n\nWe seek: \n\n Greater community ties based on our relationship with water and a better understanding of the Rights of Nature;\nUnderstanding and adoption of traditional ecological knowledge\, and to support water sovereignty for Indigenous Peoples;\nBetter communication between the community and their decision makers;\nActions that result in greater beneficial uses of water and actions that increase water quality;\nEquity for water users who have experienced injustice;\nProtections for water sources such as groundwater\, aquifers\, headwaters\, surface waters\, wetlands\, springs\, lakes\, and ponds by use of the Public Trust Doctrine\, changes in rules and statutes\, implementation of conservation best practices\, and enforcement of existing water laws;\nTo identify the public interest in all its diversity as it pertains to water with an eye to the public and environmental health\, welfare\, and safety.\n\nWater League will provide the overall support and organization for the four teams all year long and will be available to attend all team meetings to keep a central hub connection\, hear needs and suggestions\, and report on related actions of other teams.
