pwork@igc.org Peacework has been published monthly since 1972, intended to serve as a source of dependable information to those who strive for peace and justice and are committed to furthering the nonviolent social change necessary to achieve them. Rooted in Quaker values and informed by AFSC experience and initiatives, Peacework offers a forum for organizers, fostering coalition-building and teaching the methods and strategies that work in the global and local community. Peacework seeks to serve as an incubator for social transformation, introducing a younger generation to a deeper analysis of problems and issues, reminding and re-inspiring long-term activists, encouraging the generations to listen to each other, and creating space for the voices of the disenfranchised. Views expressed are those of the authors, not necessarily of the AFSC. |
Another America is Possible
Join us in building a movement to challenge the Bush Administration's dangerous priorities and facilitate campaigns to defeat the Bush agenda and build the other America that is possible. Our global community faces a demanding period. The Bush Administration remains committed to its destructive conquest of Iraq in its campaign to impose the "arrangement for the 21st century." Its threats aimed at Iran and the commitment to build a new generation of nuclear weapons show that the "neocon" unilateralist first strike doctrine remains in place. The Bush Administration also seeks to eliminate the New Deal social contract through plans to privatize social security and slash support for essential social services. It is pursuing trade agreements which will undermine our economic security and democratic control over our resources, environment, and economy. And, with our new Attorney General and torture continuing, the assault on civil liberties and democratic values continues unabated. Keynote presentation by Phyllis Bennis, Institute of Policy Studies. Workshops and panels on Immigration, Civil Liberties, Security, Fair Trade, Organizing, Anti-Militarism, the War on Terrorism, and many more topics. We have hope that another America is possible. Together we can do the hard work to bring it into being.
