We’re a group of concerned community members, veterans and military families who support military objectors to illegal war and occupation and the policies of empire. Our People Power strategy weakens the pillars that maintain war and occupation in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere by supporting GI resistance, counter-recruitment and draft resistance, which cuts off the supply of troops. We are autonomous from and independent of any political organization or party.

David Cortright: "Both wars [Vietnam and Ukraine] are crimes in the larger sense of violating the Article 2 (4) of the U.N. Charter, which prohibits the use of force against other states. Both states [the U.S. and Russia] are guilty of the crime of military aggression, which is considered the supreme crime of international law, that which contains within it the evil of the whole." ...

Militarism is the refusal to bring the force of love to bare upon the world. I am deeply troubled by Christianity’s embrace of militarism. Using my philosophical map, I find differences between my own religious thoughts and state religion. My role as a Christian is to love my neighbor my military role represents aggression against outside forces. In each case the cross has two opposing meanings. As an individual the cross represents alleviation from suffering, as a state religion the cross represents the shield of the empire. I was faced with holding two seemingly contradictory ideas at once. #christiannationalism #militarism #christofascism jdcaldwell.substack.com/p/christian-militarism

But now, this idea has transformed into reality and will forever be a contribution to Black literary excellence." ... See MoreSee Less
