Welcome to October!
We’re starting the month of October with heavy hearts, as Israel, backed by the U.S., completes one year of its relentless genocide in Palestine, and spreads horrific carnage across the border into Lebanon. We must redouble our efforts in demanding justice, an arms embargo, and a Free Palestine. In building our anti-imperialist, feminist movement, we cannot leave anyone behind. We need all hands on deck — please scroll down to find events and join us in the streets and at our community gatherings, trainings, webinars, book clubs and more. Onward toward peace and justice,
Jasmine and the entire CODEPINK team PS: Join CODEPINK as we bring the message of peace to the 2024 Women's March! We cannot let messages of feminism be co-opted by the war economy! We will take to the streets to remind women throughout the country and the world that genocide is not feminist! Join us now! |

Tell Congress: Blinken Must Resign!Humanitarian aid is crucial for sustaining life in Gaza. Before Israel's current genocide campaign, around 500 aid trucks entered Gaza daily. In September of 2024, only 67 aid trucks entered Gaza — the lowest number since October 2023. By lying deliberately and repeatedly, Blinken broke U.S. law, and conspired with Israel to kill Palestinians through starvation and prohibiting access to medical care.It’s simple: Blinken lies, Palestinians die. Send a letter to Congress to demand that they call on Blinken to resign! We refuse to have an untrustworthy murderer as the U.S. Secretary of State! TAKE ACTION NOW! |
