Webinar with Artist Robert Shetterly of "Americans Who Tell the Truth"
Artist Robert Shetterly is renowned for his series of portrait paintings titled Americans Who Tell The Truth, which depicts 265 activists (including WBW Board President Kathy Kelly & WBW Executive Director David Swanson!) who are advocating for justice. Each portrait is a portal into American history, a story of courage and persistence that reminds us that the power of democracy lies in the determined actions of the people. Taken together, the portraits demonstrate how change requires a community; meanwhile, each individual portrait is a testament to the fact that through persistence, each of us has the power to make a difference.
In this webinar, Robert shows images and tells stories about many of our most persuasive peace makers whom he has painted. Learn more at https://americanswhotellthetruth.org/

Webinar: Australia, Talisman Sabre, AUKUS and NATO in the Pacific.
SPEAKERS:
Diana Rickard, Darwin
Hon. Matt Robson, New Zealand
Dr Michelle Malony, Earth Laws
Anne Wright, Hawaii
Liz Remmerswaal, moderator
This weekend’s ‘Australia, Talisman Sabre, AUKUS and NATO in the Pacific’ signals our concerns for the massive land exercises in Australia, involving 30,000 US & Australian personnel, plus others from 11 countries, during July and August, and calls for the cancellation of the recently signed Australia, United Kingdom and United States security partnership (AUKUS).
Talisman Sabre and AUKUS threaten to provoke war with China and destroy the environment, as well as furthering colonialism and systems of oppression.
To challenge Talisman Sabre and AUKUS, many Pacific region organisations including Pacific Peace Network and Independent and Peaceful Australia Network will host a "Call for Peace in the Pacific" conference on July 29 in Brisbane with speakers from across the Pacific, followed by educational events in Sydney, Canberra, and Darwin.
The aim of these events is to raise awareness within Australia and the Pacific region of the full impacts of allowing the US to base their military personnel, weapons, hardware and software on Pacific Sovereign Lands, by sharing the experiences of Pacific People.
The mock battlefield will be from Western Australia, across the Northern Territory and Queensland, to Jervis Bay and Norfolk Island in New South Wales.
Call for Peace Petition:
Please share this petition in your networks and raise your voice against the dangerous militarization of the Pacific. https://diy.rootsaction.org/petitions/cancel-talisman-sabre-aukus
