The Missing Piece: Mothers Against Genocide

Join CODEPINK Palestine campaign organizer, Nour, and our communications manager, Melissa for our newest online community call, "Missing Peace Mondays," where we come together to reflect, mourn, educate, and mobilize.

This Monday, we'll focus on the crucial role of mothers, family members, community participants, and global citizens in opposing genocide. Community members will participate in discussions about actionable steps to inspire change, strategies for advocating Palestine support in schools, and insights into our Mother Against Genocide Campaign.
