SUMMARY:Gather to Honor the Earth\, Rebalance Ourselves
DESCRIPTION:Southern Oregon Pachamama Alliance (SOPA) is hosting a Spring Equinox Ceremony near the upper duck pond at Lithia Park in Ashland. Parking is available off Winburn Way\, just north of the Granite Street intersection. Everyone is invited. \nThe spring equinox always arrives when we seem most ready to welcome the transition of seasons. At this time of the year\, day and night are in balance\, a perfect time to seek balance in our internal lives as well. In light of all the turmoil we are experiencing currently\, it is a perfect time to pause for a moment or two to be with ourselves and friends while tapping into the greatest source of all – what some call\, the Pachamama. For a short time\, at least\, nothing is required of us\, we can throw away\, or hide\, the “to do” list. We can just show up and be in the flow of ceremony. \nSOPA has hosted simple Solstice and Equinox celebrations\, facilitated by Louise Paré\, since the winter of 2012. The celebrations are centered on gratitude while gently reflecting on themes related to the season\, recent events or the state of our world at this time. Attendees are invited to speak from their hearts or to simply be in silence in community with others.

SUMMARY:First They Came for the Immigrants
DESCRIPTION:Join three immigrant rights experts and activists to learn what is happening with mass deportation of millions of immigrants and how we can respond to this crisis. At the forefront of the Trump/MAGA white supremacy campaign is the mass deportation of millions of immigrants\, most of whom are guilty of no more of fleeing for their lives from war zones and communities consumed in violence\, or in pursuit of work and economic security. Like Trump’s protectionist tariffs\, the deportations undermine our communities’ and national economic vitality. Event sponsored by Campaign\, Peace\, Disarmament and Common Security. Register. \n

SUMMARY:Be Gun Smart… Whether or Not You Own a Firearm
DESCRIPTION:The program opens discussions around gun laws\, gun disposal and gun safety. Speakers will be Ashland Police Chief Tighe O’Meara and Jackson County Sheriff Nate Sickler. In November 2022\, Oregon voters narrowly passed Measure 114\, a groundbreaking gun control law that has never taken effect. Mired in series of court challenges\, it may be years before the law’s fate is settled. But there is plenty to talk about before the litigation runs its course. Part of the “Big Ideas” program series\, it is presented by the American Association of University Women (AAUW) Ashland Branch and Jackson County Library Services.

SUMMARY:War is Not Justified by Politics
DESCRIPTION:This webinar looks at the contrast between the bi-partisan militarism of the United States\, on the one hand\, and the starkly different governing philosophies of the two parties\, on the other. Why does party politics lead us to support wars\, or at least not oppose them\, purely on the basis of which party is conducting them? This growing polarization is leading us to support or oppose other critical policies as well\, purely on the basis of what party those policies are identifies with — rather than a rational and moral assessment of the issue at hand.

SUMMARY:March Against Monarchy
DESCRIPTION:A national activist organization\, calling itself 50501 for 50 States 50 Capitals 1 Movement\, sprang into being after Trump was inaugurated and called for the first set of rallies to be organized by local groups in the capital cities of all 50 states on Feb. 5th. Activists in many locations who couldn’t or didn’t want to travel to their state capitals\, organized local versions. Several people\, including Allen Hallmark and an Ashland resident named Rochelle\, organized a 50501 rally in the snow at the Ashland Plaza on February 5th. Only about a baker’s dozen showed up with just Facebook and BlueSky posts and word of mouth to tell folks about the rally. \nNational 50501\, which seems to be an amalgam of several activist groups on the East Coast\, called for a second round of rallies for Presidents Day\, February 17th\, and called it “Not Our President Day.” Huge rallies were held all over the country including in Medford where between 250 and 500 folks rallied at Medford City Hall and then marched to Vogel Plaza in the heart of downtown Medford. \n \nAnother rally called for by 50501 is being organized in Medford from 12 noon to 2 pm Tuesday\, March 4th\, gathering first at City Hall and followed again by a march to Vogel Plaza. The signs people have made for these rallies have been amazing. Click here to see photos of the Feb. 17th rally at Vogel Plaza. \nSeveral individuals have signed up with 50501 and claim to be the organizer of the local rallies. In fact\, a bunch of folks see the 50501call for a rally and urge their friends and supporters to join the fun. It’s a grassroots one for all and all for one kind of thing.
