The Planet Needs Peace

red hand imprint with stop the war!

American taxpayers have spent $21 trillion on the “war on terror”. Yet after these 20 years, the 99% are worse off, jobless rates are soaring, over 650,000 Americans have died of Covid-19, and the planet is sizzling.

If we want a habitable planet and true peace, we need to “connect the dots”. The US military is one of the largest polluters on the planet. We should cut the Pentagon budget and invest instead in clean energy, eliminate student debt, fund Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, living wages, affordable housing – the things that support life on this beautiful planet.

Join us on Tuesday, September 21, Peace Day, at 5:30pm in the Zoom Room at the San Jose Peace & Justice Center. We will be celebrating the 64th anniversary of the Center and sharing a short video collage of activities and activists who have been around the Center over the years.
