DESCRIPTION:Join a virtual-teach in on U.S. militarism, corporate war profiteering, and 
 Palestine\n\nAs we continue to fight for a permanent and lasting ceasefire 
 in Palestine, we know that the current genocide unfolding is against the 
 backdrop of 75+ years of occupation backed by the U.S. government and 
 supplied by weapons manufacturing corporations. Between congressional 
 actors who’ve yet to call for a ceasefire and corporations like Lockheed 
 Martin still receiving contracts from the U.S. defense department, we know 
 that the long-term struggle for a Free Palestine, and a world free from 
 genocide, occupation, and war must confront the relationships between 
 militarism and corporations. \n\nCorporations are making billions while 
 Palestinians are killed by a U.S. funded genocide and occupation. For 20 
 years the US has spent $21 trillion on militarism: $16 trillion went to the 
 Pentagon and over $7 trillion went to Pentagon contractors like Lockheed 
 Martin. \n\nINSTEAD OF WAR 
 PROFITEERING…​​​​​​​​​​​​​​That $21 TRILLION 
 could have been used to:\n\n🌱create millions of jobs at $15/hour with 
 benefits and COLA\n\n🌱Fully erase student debt\n\n🌱Guarantee 
 pre-school for every 3 & 4 year old for 10 years AND\n\n🌱Fully 
 decarbonize the electric grid\n\n...leaving over $10 TRILLION more to move 
 towards providing health care, housing, and thriving communities.\n\nWe 
 know that a world in which all people can thrive cannot exist without 
 confronting and dismantling the role of U.S. militarism and weapons 
 corporations. \n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2023/12/06/18860913.php
