Russia-Ukraine War and the Imperative of Organizing for
Peace.
Date: Sunday, March 6, 11am Pacific, 2pm
Eastern, 8pm Berlin
The shocking invasion of Ukraine by
Russia has impacts that will reverberate around the world for
some time. In addition to our deep concern for the victims of
this unjust war, we think there is an important opening for
greater cooperation between peace forces in Europe
(East and West) and North America. What can we do to end
this war swiftly? What can we do to prevent the next
one? Join us on the Global Day of Action for Peace in
Ukraine. Speakers will include:
