SUMMARY:BUILDING A PEACE ECONOMY
DESCRIPTION:How to Defund War & Create a Peace Economy Through Right Valuing Land & Tading Billionaires’ Unearned Income \nWhile billionaires accumulate vast unearned wealth through financial gains and land speculation\, communities struggle for housing\, heath care\, and peace. This webinar explores how shifting our tax system — taking what people take from the commons rather than what they create – can fund the foundations of a truly peaceful society. . Our speaker will connect the dots and offer real solutions for which we can advocate. Questions: Contact mbgardam@gmail.com \nWHAT WE’LL EXPLORE TOGETHER:\n• Why billionaire wealth is largely unearned – and what that means for democracy.\n• The history of privatizing land and resources\, ‘the commons’ and the historic enclosure of the commons.\n• Land value taxation as a tool for affordable housing & shared prosperity\n• Real world examples of how it can work.\n• The link between economic inequality\, militarism and the peace we seek. \nPRESENTER:\nAlanna Harzok\, a WILPF member\, educator\, activist and lecturer at the Schumacher Center for a New Economics. Alanna is the author of The Earth Belongs To Everyone (Radical Middle Book Award). She is Co-Director of the Earth Rights Institute and a UN NGO Representative of the International Union for Land Value Taxation.

SUMMARY:Crafting Justice: Mail Tile by May 30
DESCRIPTION:Join us in this collective quilt project to memorialize the Gaza genocide and expand international solidarity. \nThe genocide in Gaza continues. WILPF US is an activist home for those who wish to mobilize in solidarity with Gaza. We are also a home for Artivists. We invite the public to co-create an art piece by sending in fabric tiles for inclusion in a social justice quilt. It will be designed by Gazan artist Taimaa Salamaa\, assembled by artists in Detroit\, and displayed in Detroit and other locations in the US – reflecting the intersectional nature of oppression and the power of art as a form of resistance. This project is a partnership between\nWILPF US and  City of Asylum/Detroit. City of Asylum provides safe-haven fellowships for writers and artists forced into exile due to their work. \nRegister and mail your tile by May 30. Register for this event here.
