Stop the War in Ukraine! Russian Troops Out! No to Nato Expansion

V Nunn
Thursday, April 14, 2022
Uncategorized

What role is the U.S. playing in the war in Ukraine? How dangerous is this war for those not immediately impacted by the bloodshed? What’s the risk that this could escalate to nuclear war?

Check out these recent articles:
Pentagon Asks Top 8 US Arms Makers to Meet on Ukraine
Ukraine and International Law: Precedents of Permissibility 
The Military Situation in the Ukraine—An Update
Noam Chomsky Warns: Most Dangerous Point in Human History Looming 
Why non-Western countries tend to see Russia’s war very, very differently

Actions you can take:
Save the Date: Saturday May 7 for next internationally coordinated actions to stop the war!
Contact the White House! Call 202-456-1414 or write using this form. Let President Biden know that you believe a ceasefire in Ukraine is urgently needed. Despite the obstacles, US policy should prioritize diplomacy, a rapid withdrawal of Russian troops in a negotiated process, and relief from sanctions.

Write letters to the editor of our local papers. Join “Writers for CODEPINK Congress” for encouragement and support in writing letters to the editor. Letters to the editor can be a powerful way to educate the public and influence public opinion. Keep your letter short and to the point. Write in response to a recently published article. Email marcy@codepink.org to get connected, and email us at bfp@brooklynpeace.org for list of local publications.

If you missed our recent Forum “Russian Invasion of Ukraine and US Policy: Challenges for the Peace Movement,” you can see the full-length recording here or Highlights, Part One.

REGISTER HERE: bit.ly/BrooklynMobilizationPPCThe New York State Poor People’s Campaign is organizing a powerful delegation of poor and low-wealth people for the Poor People’s and Low Wage Workers’ Mass Assembly and Moral March on Washington and to the Polls on June 18! We march on June 18 because any nation that ignores nearly half of its citizens is in a moral, economic and political crisis. There were 140 million people who were poor or one emergency away from economic ruin before the pandemic. Since March 2020, while hundreds of thousands of people have died, and millions are on the edge of hunger and eviction, and are still without health care or living wages, billionaire wealth has grown by over $2 trillion.Brooklyn for Peace and the PPC are organizing Brooklyn based faith communities and organizations to build solidarity and get on a bus or buses leaving from Brooklyn. Information and details regarding this mobilization will be discussed at this meeting. Please join us and learn how you and your community can participate!

Sat. May 21, 11:00 am–12:00 noon: Join us at this vigil in Brooklyn to call for peace in Ukraine! We’ll have a banner and flyers. While we continue to condemn Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine, we also urge President Biden to change course, and going forward, to use all diplomatic tools available to enunciate an urgent call for a cease-fire and a negotiated solution. We’re very alarmed by the shift in stated US policy from assisting Ukraine’s defense to fostering an indefinite military quagmire for Russia. This is a dangerously misguided approach, certain to produce greater suffering and destruction.
