GPVA Calls for Systemic Changes to End Anti-Asian Xenophobia RICHMOND, VA -- On March 16th, 2021, our nation was rocked once again by another mass shooting, this time targeted against Asian women in the Atlanta Metro Area. This horrendous act of violence that resulted in the deaths of 8 individuals, 6 of whom were Asian women, characterizes America’s underlying problems of racism and sexism, as well as the resurgence of anti-Asian sentiments that have accompanied the COVID-19 pandemic. However, anti-Asian hate has persisted in American society for centuries: from the anti-Chinese riots of the mid-19th century to the internment of Japanese-Americans during the Second World War. The current resurgence is nothing new to America and exposes our broken institutions and flawed system. Continue reading

A Peace Action Committee webinar March 20, 2021 was the 18th anniversary of the illegal invasion of Iraq and this webinar takes this opportunity to consider critically important questions about US war policies. Round 2 of the reconstituted “war on terror” began following the 9/11 attacks. What began as an invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001 has developed into a massive network of counterterror operations in more than 70 countries. Trillions of dollars and innumerable lost and disrupted lives later – what do we have to show it and where are we heading? Continue reading

Honoring Women This Month and Every Month!

By Carl J. Romanelli PHILADELPHIA – Over the past 20 there is hardly a day that passes in which we don’t see articles, news stories or social media posts regarding healthcare. The power of the for-profit health insurance industry, as well as medical and pharmaceutical lobbies, has diluted and distorted the traditional meaning of many of the terms associated with a healthcare overhaul. Despite this, the Green Party has remained a steadfast supporter of healthcare reform.For clarity, let’s examine some of those terms. Continue reading

PITTSBORO, NC – Over the past several weeks, the North Carolina Green Party has been active in supporting the Bessemer, Alabama Amazon warehouse worker vote to organize under the representation of the Retail, Wholesale Department Store Workers Union (RWDSU).

A “YES” vote victory would have a tremendous symbolic impact and could change momentum in the largely unorganized US South by showing everyday people, nationally and internationally, what truly is possible when workers unite.
