Albert King – Blues Power – 9/23/1970 – Fillmore East

“Under a Stein presidency, the military economy will transition to a green economy, with decreased dependence on fossil fuels, and an end to subsidies for military contractors. The Fortune 500 makes more money from weapons sales in America than in any other nation on the planet. This stimulates the economy, but these funds come out of everyday peoples’ pockets. A green alternative of securing the peace will create jobs, and do so without causing the deaths of countless millions around the world. Additionally, the justified hatred that much of the world feels towards the U.S. will fade, as the U.S. becomes a more responsible player on the world stage.”

“Peace has never come from dropping bombs. … The most valuable possession you can own is an open heart. The most powerful weapon you can be is an instrument of peace. … Most people are prisoners, thinking only about the future or living in the past. They are not in the present, and the present is where everything begins.”
~Carlos Santana

There are pluses and minuses on Capitol Hill these days. But on big-picture items, it’s clear that environmentalists, labor-rights activists and peacemakers are mostly up against the corporate wall — and the wall is not yielding.Image result for wall of fascism
Kamala Harris, Donnie Trump, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, Mike Pence, Bernie Sanders, Dick Cheney, Joe Biden… all the corporate candidates and “leaders…” believe in, vote for, invest in and support unprovoked and avoidable corporate wars to enforce illegal private extraction which continues to bankrupt the nation and make the planet demonstrably less secure.
And we have dim, ignorant fascists at the helm.

This is not working… We need a Green New Deal. This won’t happen without a lot more effective grassroots coalitions. The Real Green Party New Deal is about Peace, People and a healing planet where all ships can rise.

No fear, no compromise and no surrender!

Luther Standing Bear, writing in the 1930s, noted:
The old people came literally to love the soil and they sat or reclined on the ground with a feeling of being close to a mothering power. It was good for the skin to touch the earth and the old people liked to remove their moccasins and walk with bare feet on the sacred earth. . . . The soil was soothing, strengthening, cleansing, and healing. . . . Wherever the Lakota went, he was with Mother Earth. No matter where he roamed by day or slept by night he was safe with her.
https://www.amacad.org/publication/indigenous-americans-spirituality-and-ecosimagesme3
Native people, according to Standing Bear, were often baffled by the European tendency to refer to nature as crude, primitive, wild, rude, untamed, and savage. “For the Lakota; mountains, lakes, rivers, springs, valleys, and woods were all finished beauty. . . .”
https://revolutionresource.org/?s=mother+earth
As LaDuke tells us:
“In our communities, Native environmentalists sing centuries-old songs to renew life, to give thanks for the strawberries, to call home fish, and to thank Mother Earth for her blessings.”

LIGHTNIN’ HOPKINS – WAR NEWS BLUES

Kamala Harris and Joe Biden are war criminals writ large.

https://thepeaceresource.com/2024/07/23/kamala-harris-is-a-war-criminal/

Biden and Harris are currently exporting 56 unprovoked but simultaneous and expanding wars costing trillions, killing millions, bankrupting America and crippling Mother Earth.
The last seven American presidential administrations (Biden/Harris, Trump/Pence, Obama/Biden, GWBush/Cheney, Clinton/Dole, GHWBush/Quale an Reagan/GHWBush) delivered America into 56 simultaneous and expanding wars. This is rank treason.

http://www.ThePortlandAlliance.org/CurrentAmericanWars

Today, the Biden/Harris administration is exporting 56 unprovoked and avoidable corporate-American wars (economic and military aggression ranging from sanctions to contractors, mercenaries, troops and bombs) in Afghanistan, Algeria, Belarus, Bolivia, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, China, Comoros, Cuba, Darfur, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Eritrea, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Gaza, Gulf of Guinea, Haiti, Hong Kong, Iran, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kuwait, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Myanmar, Niger, Nigeria, Nicaragua, North Korea, Pakistan, Palestine, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Russia, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Uganda, Ukraine, Venezuela, West Bank, Yemen and Zimbabwe.

But we have a real choice for the first woman President in America!

https://thepeaceresource.com/2024/05/26/dr-jill-ellen-stein-can-win/

Dr. Jill Stein has a vetted plan for shutting down 56 wars of aggression and investing in peace, people and planet. And she is smart enough to get it done. She is, by any standard, more qualified than the last seven American presidents.

Stein has the credentials and abilities to lead us through a Green Party New Deal. This is about shutting down dozens of wars and investing in peace, people and a healing planet.

https://thepeaceresource.com/2019/02/12/vote-green-party-for-a-new-deal/

We can embrace the Green Party New Deal.

“Our nation – and our world – face a “perfect storm” of economic and environmental crises that threaten not only the global economy, but life on Earth as we know it. The dire, existential threats of climate change, wars for oil, and a stagnating, crisis-ridden economic system require bold and visionary solutions if we are to leave a livable world to the next generation and beyond….

Nina Simone – Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood
These looming crises mean that the question facing us in upcoming elections is historically unique. The fate of humanity is in our hands. It is not just a question of what kind of world we want, but whether we will have a world where we can survive.”

Dr. Jill Stein

“The political system is broken. Over 60% of us now say the two-party establishment has failed us and we need a party that serves the people. I’m running for President to offer a better choice for the people. Join us!”

“I want to speak to the massacre now taking place before our eyes in Gaza. We call for an investigation of the Netanyahu regime’s war crimes as well as the role of Biden and US leaders in aiding and abetting them. And above all, these crimes must stop now.”

People. Planet. Peace.
