CODEPINK in December!
Reflection, Inspiration, & Action!
❄️☃️

Dear John!

We’ve done it — another full year of organizing for peace and prosperity is in the books! The CODEPINK community has touched the hearts and minds of thousands of people around the globe who are inspired by our bold actions and feel aligned with our vision for the future. There is so much work still to be done to bring down U.S. imperialism and the war machine and to free our siblings living under occupation, apartheid, and genocidal regimes.

There is so much work to be done to educate our neighbors about how we’re all tied together, how our big beautiful planet has enough resources for all of us, and how we can build towards a society where people are placed above profit. There will always be more work to do, but it is important to pause and look at where we’ve been to see where we’re going.

We invite you to reflect on our organizing this year, to learn lessons from both our wins and losses, and to congratulate ourselves for committing to community this year. Then, join us for a jam-packed schedule of events and actions to close out the year and usher in a new year of peacemaking efforts. Thank you for riding with us, and we hope to see you in the streets next year. Till peace is ours.

Jasmine and the entire CODEPINK team

P.S.: Sign up to organize with us and we will reach out to you for a one-on-one. For questions, or to have local CODEPINK events posted, email me.

Highlights from November! 🍂

CBS: Drop Bari Weiss! Chicago Action

CBS, owned by Paramount, just made Bari Weiss editor-in-chief after acquiring her outlet, The Free Press. Weiss is a mouthpiece for the Israeli propaganda machine — and she’s now the editor-in-chief of one of the U.S.'s major news outlets, one that has been notoriously neutral in its coverage.

Thank you to CODEPINK Chicago, who showed up to a Free Press event with Bari Weiss, demanding honest media coverage and saying no to the monopolization of our news outlets!

Tell CBS: Drop Bari Weiss, Drop Zionism!

Warfare Over Healthcare: It’s Necropolitics All the Way Down

By: Melissa Garriga, CODEPINK

"Next year, an estimated five million people will be priced out of health insurance in the United States. I am one of them. When I went to renew my family’s policy, I was shocked to discover my premium had gone up to $2,600 per month, a price my household of four simply cannot afford. For the first time in my adult life, I will be uninsured, joining the millions who have navigated this risky reality for years."

Ready to Go Deeper? 📚📣

Join CODEPINK for two weeks of focus on the Local Peace Economy, where we’ll explore how to resist the war machine by building alternatives — right where we live. For decades, we’ve fought to end wars. But we won’t stop militarism until we dismantle the war economy it serves. While we shine a light on the violence of the policymakers, we must also cultivate a future of peace, divesting ourselves from the war economy culture we inhabit and practicing the habits that lead to peace.

Through social media series, articles, and podcasts, we will share interesting facts about co-ops, mutual aid networks, and global resistance to exploitative capitalism. We will give you practical tools to take your next steps to engaging locally, like organizing clothing swaps, skill shares, or local cooperatives. War thrives on exploitation, oppression, and extraction; we believe in care, cooperation, and community. Build a giving, sharing, caring, thriving, relational, and resilient peace economy with us.
