DESCRIPTION:Submitted by SOCAN \nElections always have consequences. This is especially the case for our potential to address\nthe climate crisis when some candidates for office accept the science of global warming and it\nclimate change consequences while others display something between skepticism and outright\nrejection of science. From the local to the national level the outcomes from the 2024 general\nelection will indicate profoundly whether meaningful action is likely. \nThe Southern Oregon Climate Action Now November General Meeting will focus on an\nexploration of what the election results mean for climate action in the near future. Special guest\nand notable climate champion State Representative Pam Marsh will offer insight regarding what\nthe election outcome means for climate action as we approach the 2025 long session.\nAdditionally\, SOCAN co-facilitator. Alan Journet will explore what the results mean for federal\naction\, Denise Krause will discuss what results mean for the Jackson County Board of\nCommissioners and SOCAN co-facilitator Kathy Conway will do likewise for regional city\nelection results. \nThe meeting is free and open to the public and will occur from 6:00 – 7:30 on Tuesday\nNovember 26 th at the Medford Public Library\, 205 S Central Ave\, Medford.

Palestinian journalist Mariam Barghouti and Jenin resident Rwanda Arqawi share their firsthand experiences\, cutting through the fog of misinformation to reveal the human realities often obscured in Western mainstream narratives. \nAt a time when documenting truth has become increasingly dangerous\, these voices from the ground illuminate not only Israel’s violence in Jenin\, but also the danger of bearing witness to it. Israel has killed more journalists in Palestine than died in any other conflict over the past three decades. Via personal stories and professional insights\, our speakers highlight the impact of ongoing Israeli military operations\, the resilience of Palestinians in Jenin and throughout the region\, and the critical importance of preserving and sharing truth in the face of systemic erasure. \nJoin us in community for this timely discussion about the power of testimony\, the cost of silence\, and the need to amplify voices from the ground. \nThere is a suggested donation of $25 for this event. \nProceeds from this community gathering will go to training young people in Jenin on photography and film production\, as well as purchasing video equipment (cameras\, audio\, computers and lighting). \nRegister Here URL:https://peacehouse.net/event/when-truth-becomes-the-enemy-voices-from-jenin/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Israel Palestine Conflict,War & Peace ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://peacehouse.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/whentruthbecomestheenemy.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241117T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241117T173000 DTSTAMP:20260606T221051 CREATED:20241115T181234Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241115T181234Z UID:10002402-1731859200-1731864600@peacehouse.net SUMMARY:Homelessness in Our Region: Jefferson Center Discussion DESCRIPTION:Echo Fields\, retired SOU professor of sociology\, will join the Jefferson Center for a discussion of Homelessness in our Region. The discussion will focus on key issues relating to homelessness. \nThese include: problems in gathering reliable data on the homeless population; how this information relates to stereotypes about homelessness arising from stigma\, emotion\, and punitive impulses; what needs to change in our social systems in order to implement solutions to homelessness; and what kinds of actions individuals and non-profit organizations might undertake. \nBlaming and trying to change homeless individuals is unlikely to resolve the problem\, and such approaches let “comfortable people” off the hook for the need for system changes. Changing these intersecting social systems takes time and requires collaboration among government\, non-profit organizations and citizen volunteers. \nHow do we get there? The program will be held in the Jefferson Center space\, suite 101\, in the Old Armory Building\, 208 Oak St.\, in Ashland. Light refreshments will be served. This event is free and open to the public. If you have questions\, please contact Tony Davis (tonydavis0@ gmail.com).

Similarly\, with the almost complete disregard of international law by governments right across the spectrum. \nThis is an international event. Please note the very early morning time for the Pacific Time region. \nWhat we’re focusing on is: where to from here? What might be promising new approaches\, new ideas\, new initiatives – ways of reforming the UN system. \nThe webinar brings together a diverse and uniquely equipped group of intellectuals and practitioners for a lively\, thought-provoking\, even provocative conversation. \nFollowing the four presentations we will distil a strategic direction for future engagement with the focus on concrete initiatives that SHAPE\, together with other civil society organizations and perhaps some like-minded governments and international agencies\, can pursue in coming months and beyond. \nWe want to spell out a new direction\, but also point to the steps needed along the way. How do we create the necessary momentum for change? Where can we expect leadership to come from? What energies and resources can be brought to bear on such an enterprise? \nWe are delighted that Dr Grace Pandor will be a key contributor to this discussion. \nDr. Pandor is a remarkable South African educator\, academic and politician. She served as  South Africa’s Minister of International Relations and Cooperation 2019-2024 and led the country’s historic genocide case of December 2023 brought against Israel in the International Court of Justice; she was an ANC MP since majority rule in 1994\, and held several ministerial responsibilities. She was responsible for a complete overhaul of the nation’s education system. \nAdditional speakers include: \nRichard Falk\, Grace Naledi Pandor\, Hans von Sponeck\, and Vijay Prashad. \nRegister Here \n  URL:https://peacehouse.net/event/reshaping-our-malfunctioning-world-change-is-in-the-air/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:Allies,Community Event,Nuclear Issues ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://peacehouse.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Shape-Change-is-in-the-Air-cropped-3.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241019T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241020T160000 DTSTAMP:20260606T221051 CREATED:20240927T164818Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241018T213019Z UID:10002023-1729333800-1729440000@peacehouse.net SUMMARY:Indigenous Peoples Day DESCRIPTION:Honor the past | Empower the Present | Inspire the Future \nSpeakers\, Good\, Indigenous Artisans Market\, Danders\, Ativities \nSaturday October 19 \nWelcoming 11:00 AM \nSalmon Lunch: Noon – 4:00 PM ($10 a plate\, cash only) \nGuest speakers and open sharing 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM \nSunday October 20 10:30-4:00 PM \nIndian Tacos & frybread hosted by SOU NSASU (cash only) \nGuest speakers and open sharing all day \n  \nArtisan Market sat and sun 10:30 AM – 4 PM \nFor more infro contact Kenw ani Kravitz at kravitzk@sou.edu or 541552-6937 URL:https://peacehouse.net/event/27097/2024-10-19/ LOCATION:Southern Oregon University\, Ashland\, OR\, 97520 CATEGORIES:Allies,Community Event,Indigenous rights,Indigenous Sovereignty,Racial Justice ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://peacehouse.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Indigenous-peoples-Day-.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241019T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241019T113000 DTSTAMP:20260606T221051 CREATED:20241018T195647Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241018T195647Z UID:10002020-1729332000-1729337400@peacehouse.net SUMMARY:Implementation of International Law Now DESCRIPTION:This 90-minute\, live event is free and open to the public.

Measure 110 had problems due to lack of resources\nand other issues. \nIn response to public backlash\, Measure 110 was amended by Oregon House Bill 4002 in 2024.\nHB 4002 repealed the drug decriminalization portion of Measure 110\, however\, it included a\nnumber of provisions to better address the state’s addiction crisis\, including “deflection”\nprograms. \nJackson County has opted to create a deflection program. \nAs our Representative Pam Marsh has stated\, the Deflection Program “will provide individuals\nwho are found with possession with multiple pathways to connect with treatment and avoid\nlong term legal consequences\, including jail or a criminal record.” \nThe deflection program is currently being created and will go into effect October 7\, 2024.\nTo find out what to expect\, we invite you to an online public forum joining legislators\, health\nproviders and law enforcement officials (see attachment).
