Addressing the Division and Hostility in our Nation:
We are at a pivotal moment. Rising polarization is deepening the cracks in our society and entrenching us further in death-making systems: war, racism, economic inequality, environmental destruction, and the targeting of pre-born children. This mass destruction of human beings from chemical warfare, racist policies, nuclear weapons, the abortion industry, and the profit-seeking industries is no longer a potential threat. It is real.
This is an appeal to change-makers, peace groups, right-to-life advocates, faith leaders, and justice advocates, who believe our issues are interconnected and want to choose another path: to weave a garment of justice that embraces us all.
Together, We Are Stronger
With our appeal to unity as the spark, we will build momentum under the banner: Our Struggles Connected: Unite for Peace and Life, which culminates on January 22nd, marking both the anniversaries of Roe v. Wade and the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons going into effect.
Every fight for justice, from racial equity to a world without war to respecting life to climate action, relies on the collective power of people. By uniting our voices, resources, and energy, we can bring about meaningful change that benefits all our communities.
Why do we need the Horror and Hope National Day of Action?
-
Through digital storytelling, on-the-ground actions, and public witnesses, we will challenge the systems of violence that separate us and call our movements to radical unity.
-
This campaign will strengthen a network of individuals and groups, culminating in a day of action on the intertwined anniversaries of Roe v. Wade and the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons coming into effect.
-
This is an opportunity to invest in that unity and create a much-needed chance to be part of a generational shift toward peace, justice, and life.
