SUMMARY:Ukraine Crisis: NATO and The US Global War Drive
DESCRIPTION:Abroad coalition of peace organizations will host an open meeting on how to respond to the Current Crisis in Ukraine and war threats on Russia. What can do about it? \nPlease join this important online meeting and discussion with leaders from the antiwar movement including (in alphabetical order): \nLeela Anand – ANSWER coalition \nAjamu Baraka – Black Alliance for Peace \nMedea Benjamin – CodePink \nSara Flounders – International Action Center \nMargaret Flowers – Popular Resistance \nBruce Gagnon – Global Network Against Weapons & Nuclear Power in Space \nJoe Jamison – US Peace Council \nMargaret Kimberley – Black Agenda Report \nJeff Mackler – United National Antiwar Coalition \nNancy Price – Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (US) \nSusan Schnall – Veterans For Peace \nDavid Swanson – World Beyond War \nJoe Lombardo will chair. Ajamu Baraka will give an opening statement \nPlease click here to register for the meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ 10cVDLQuQR6T3WPeAkJwtw \nOnly a few short months after the chaotic US defeat in Afghanistan\, the US is pushing a war with Russia\, a major nuclear power. US officials insist that the Russians will invade Ukraine. Russia has repeatedly denied this. \nIn recent days the US and some of their allies have closed their embassies and asked their nationals to leave Ukraine. [The US and allies moved their embassies to Lvov in western Ukraine where Nazis predominate.] \nThe Ukrainian military has a force of 150\,000 troops\, that are U.S. trained and armed with modern US weapons\, near the Russian border and the independent regions in Donbass. These independent regions have taken a stand in opposition to the right-wing\, coup government in Kiev\, since 2014. The Ukrainian military has started heavy shelling of the independent areas of Donbass\, which have returned the fire. \nEvery U.S. war in our lifetime has been based on false information\, repeated relentlessly by the corporate media. There is deep apprehension that the US and the Ukrainian government are preparing a “false flag” incident that could lead to a major conflict. \nThe US has tens of thousands of troops in Europe\, it is putting troops on high alert and sending more. They are not only arming the Ukrainian military\, but they are expanding NATO bases and sending additional arms and missiles to other NATO countries in the region. \nIt is important that the U.S. antiwar movement come together to oppose these dangerous war moves. Please join us this evening!

SUMMARY:Water is Life: Webinar on Choosing Water over War
DESCRIPTION:During the U.S. holiday of Thanksgiving last year\, military families in Hawaii turned on their water faucets\, and what came out made their homes smelled like a petrol station. It turned out that the U.S. Navy’s Red Hill fuel tanks had been leaking petroleum into the drinking water. The contaminated aquifer supplies 90% of the island of Oahu. The State Dept. of Health ordered the Navy to drain the tanks\, but the Navy flouted the order\, saying it will appeal\, with no regard whatsoever for the health and safety of the very citizens it professes to protect.   \nThe U.S. military’s priority — above all — is confrontation with China and Russia. It insists that “security” must come first. But its willingness to sacrifice clean drinking water and a livable future is nothing short of blasphemy. \nIn its mission to provoke China\, the U.S. has been ramping up the militarization of the Pacific over the past decade — and with it has come increased contamination and cultural genocide. Not just in Hawaii\, but also in Korea’s Jeju Island\, the Philippines\, and also on islands still bound by colonial shackles\, such as Okinawa and the Ryukus\, and Guam and the Marianas. Like Hawaii\, these sacred places have been ill-fated to serve as the strategic nodes from which war against China would be launched. \nRegister for this free\, public webinar to hear from folks on the front lines about how they are mobilizing to counter this Goliath\, and how we are all connected by the sacred solidarity of water. \nThe event will include presentations\, followed by Q&A\, from these presenters: \nKamanamaikalani Beamer (Hawaii) is the Dana Naone Hall Chair in Hawaiian Studies\, Literature\, and the Environment at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.

He previously served as executive director of the Kohala Center\, director of ‘Āina-Based Education at Kamehameha Schools\, and director of Stanford University’s First Nations Futures Institute. He is a co-founder of ʻĀina Aloha Economic Futures. \nWalden Flores Bello (Philippines) is a Filipino academic\, environmentalist\, and social worker who served as a member of the House of Representatives of the Philippines. He is an international adjunct professor at Binghamton University\, professor of sociology and public administration at the University of the Philippines Diliman\, and executive director of regional policy think-tank Focus on the Global South. Bello is also the founder and chairperson of the left-wing alliance Laban ng Masa. (lit.

SUMMARY:Sexual and Relationship Violence. Time for Change.
DESCRIPTION:The Jefferson Center presents “Sexual and Relationship Violence:  Time for Change.” on February 13. \n\n\nWhy aren’t sexual violence and relationship violence gone from our society? Susan Moen will review risks\, social norms\, and stereotypes that encourage sexual violence. She will outline programs and strategies for prevention of harm. Register for the Zoom conversation by clicking the link here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcld-uppzkvE9UV2PX7obDKQt9Hn6P…(link is external)\nFor decades\, prevention work focused on teaching women (always women) to change their behaviors in order to lessen their risk of assault: “how not to get raped\,” “personal safety\,” and “risk reduction.” Recently\, there has been a move toward changing social norms and stereotypes that allow or even encourage sexual violence. What does prevention work look like in the Rogue Valley? What are the goals and strategies of these programs? What do we know now about causes as well as impacts? What can we do personally and as a community? Where is resistance to change? Did COVID change anything? \nAbout the Presenter: Susan Moen is the Executive Director and co-founder of the local non-profit Jackson County SART (Sexual Assault Response Team) which provides direct services to survivors of sexual violence and brings sexual violence prevention classes into K-12 schools\, businesses and community groups.

SUMMARY:Self Compassion: The Jewel at the Center of Being
DESCRIPTION:Self-care and self-compassion are foundational to our ability to be of true service in the world. Please join us for this two-session series about practices that enhance our capacity for these important skills. \nIn order to bring compassion to others—whether those closest to us or those suffering around our nation and the globe—we must embrace our ability to be compassionate with ourselves. And yet\, that seems to be something many of us have great difficulty with. \nWe will develop practices around the three key components of self-compassion identified by researcher Kristin Neff: \n\nKindness\, to soften our hearts and open to suffering\nA sense of common humanity\, to connect us to our essential inter-being with all life\nMindfulness\, to open us to the present moment and capacity for gratitude\n\nThe growing field of research around self-compassion indicates it is strongly associated with enhanced emotional well being and relationships along with diminished anxiety\, depression\, and stress. Self-compassion provides emotional strength and resilience\, allowing us to admit our shortcomings\, motivate ourselves with kindness\, forgive ourselves when needed\, relate wholeheartedly to others\, and be more authentically ourselves. \nIn this workshop we will engage in experiential exercises\, including meditation\, and provide home practices to help you learn to: \n\nRenew and practice compassion through gratitude\, self-appreciation\, and savoring\nDevelop ways to deal with challenging emotions with greater ease\nMotivate yourself with kindness rather than criticism\n\nJoin us to polish and treasure the jewel that exists at the heart of our being. Consider inviting your friends\, co-workers\, and relations so you can all support each other in self-care! \nCost\nThe cost for this workshop series is tiered according to a pay-as-you-are-able structure. This enables us to offer workshops in a financially sustainable way while creating accessibility for those without financial means to attend\, as well as opportunities for generosity for those who would like to support others’ attendance. \n$45 – Friend \n$85 – Supporter \n$115 – Champion \n$145 – Visionary \nWe are committed to accessibility and sincerely wish for all who wish to attend our workshops to be able to do so\, regardless of financial means. If the lowest ticket price is not affordable for you\, please submit a scholarship request. \nYour generous donations make our scholarship program possible. If you have the means\, please consider donating to our scholarship fund to enable others to attend who otherwise would not be able to do so.

SUMMARY:SOCAN Monthly Meeting – Greenhouse Gas Emissions: The Ocean Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Dr. Bill Gorham\, marine biologist\, Coastal SOCAN leader\, SOCAN Board of Directors member \nSince we are land-dwelling organisms\, we focus on the climate crisis as an atmospheric and terrestrial issue. If we were dolphins\, we’d have a different point of view. Besides causing warming above the ocean\, greenhouse gases also impact our oceans in many ways\, from causing warming and raising the sea level\, to acidifying the entire marine environment and compromising the survival of many ecologically and commercially important marine species. \nDr. Gorham will help us understand how narrow our airborne view of the climate crisis is by presenting the marine underwater view of this global crisis. \nSOCAN meets monthly  with speakers and movies on Topics related to climate change. \nThese meetings are free and open to the public \nRegistration Required Link

SUMMARY:Fireside Chat with Executive Director Marion Kendall
DESCRIPTION:Join LifeWay for a lunch & learn for Human Trafficking Awareness Month! \nCelebrate Human Trafficking Awareness Month with LifeWay Network. As part of the group’s month-long programming\, LifeWay is shedding light on how service providers disrupt human trafficking. Join us for a Fireside chat with Executive Director Marion Kendall. \nThere is a misconception that when a survivor is trafficked\, the solution is for the survivor to be “rescued” and the work is over. The reality is that an “exit” out of a compelling trafficking situation is only the beginning of a long-term recovery process. \nThe role of service providers\, and more specifically safe houses\, are an overlooked part of the recovery process. The exploitation created by traffickers is only part of the traumatic experience. Trafficking can also: Inhibit survivors from saving funds and building credit; disrupt their employment and educational history; leave them to navigate legal and bureaucratic systems; hinder their development; create acute and chronic medical and psychological needs\, and more. LifeWay confronts this reality. \nRSVP\, and check out our campaign page here. \nYou are invited to a Zoom webinar.\nWhen: Jan 25\, 2022 12:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)\nTopic: #ShedLight22 \nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/82725212046\nOr One tap mobile :\nUS: +19292056099\,\,82725212046# or +13017158592\,\,82725212046#\nOr Telephone:\nDial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\nUS: +1 929 205 6099 or +1 301 715 8592 or +1 312 626 6799 or +1 253 215 8782 or +1 346 248 7799 or +1 669 900 6833\nWebinar ID: 827 2521 2046\nInternational numbers available: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kdf2hXRDg9
