 Militarization of our Schools

The Pentagon is taking over our poorer public schools. This is the reality for disadvantaged youth.

 

What we can do

Corporate/conservative alliances threaten Democracy . Progressives have an important role to play.

 Why does NNOMY matter?

Most are blind or indifferent to the problem.
A few strive to protect our democracy.

Additional Info:

On Earth Peace Additional Info: On Earth Peace contributes to movement-building and capacity development for counter-recruitment
organizers. 

As an organization rooted in the Church of the Brethren, On Earth
Peace's specific constituency within the counter-recruitment movement is support for those doing counter-recruitment work motivated by a Christian faith basis, although we welcome all people to take advantage of our resources and calls. 

We offer national networking conference calls which include sharing by participants about challenges and victories, strategy tips, and spiritual support/theological reflection about counter-recruitment. These are a great place to get connected to the larger movement. 

Check our website to find the date for the next conference call.  We also offer one-on-one phone support around strategy for new and more experienced organizers. We provide a basic organizing and outreach packet which includes a sample of 10-15 resources from around the movement, suggestions specifically for folks working from a Christian faith basis, and tips for getting started.  On Earth Peace looks forward to working with you!
