Women Wage Peace (WWP), in Israele per la pace
-
Donne per la pace in Israele
Women Wage Peace (WWP) è stato fondato nel 2014 da un gruppo di donne israeliane, tra cui spiccano Vivian Silver, attivista pacifista canadese-israeliana tragicamente uccisa nell'attacco di Hamas del 7 ottobre 2023, e Yael Admi.
Yael Admi, riconosciuta da Time tra le donne dell'anno nel 2024, è un'altra leader fondatrice, attiva nei legami con partner palestinesi come Women of the Sun.

At least where I'm at, the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) is garnering some attention for leading anti-ICE protests.
It's worth remembering where the PSL comes from.
Socialist Workers Party split -> Workers World Party split -> Party for Socialism and Liberation.
Every one of these groups is an abomination.
1. The Socialist Workers Party was a mainline Trotskyist group founded in the U.S. by James Cannon and his followers. They defended entry into the social democratic parties and defense of the USSR since it had statified property. I call this group "mainline" since even many Trotskyists had left Cannon's orbit years before the SWP's founding, and groped towards, but failed to reach, positions already elaborated by the Communist Left since the 1920s (namely that counter-revolution has triumphed in the Soviet Union and that state property is not progressive). Politically stillborn, the SWP limps on today as boosters for Stalinist Cuba.
2. Sam Marcy broke with the SWP in the 1950s to form the Workers World Party. His gripes? That the SWP did not sufficiently support the Russian invasion of Hungary in 1956 (to put down a workers' uprising!) and that the SWP should support Maoist China. Today ardent defenders of North Korea and Belarus!
3. The PSL is formed in 2004 after a split in the Workers World Party. Their politics are essentially the same as those of the Worker's World Party. Supporters of Russia, Assad's Syria, North Korea, and China.
Just because a group uses the title "socialist" and is active doesn't mean it is any good. As the left communist Herman Gorter said:
"Whenever a group, no mater how small, bases its actions on the development of society, then it is a party, yes, the party [...]. [S]cience, theory and the tactics which flow from it are what make a workers' party, not the number of members. Conversely, a workers' party whose actions are not based on the knowledge of society is not a real party even if it has a hundred thousand supporters. It is only a crowd, masses of people gathered around a troop of demagogues."

It's time for the Weekly Writing Prompt #wwp !
The rules are here: https://mk.toast.cafe/notes/91ov8pr4is
The prompts this week are:
* https://mk.toast.cafe/notes/929d9hbkmu -
My prompt to all of you on week 2 is:
Far to the east, there is a small mountain temple. Life at it was calm and peaceful for most inhabitants. One day, however, this calm was disturbed by an unexpected visitor. They were looking for something rumoured to be in this general area, but ran out of water and had to seek shelter.
As a reminder, only reply to this post with submissions. The #wwp announcement is about to go up!
If you want to write prompts too, please add that to the end of your submission :nko_3c: -

Enjoy! -
My prompt for all of you on week 1 is:
"Your character has a bookmark that is very precious to them. They've always used it since they got it, and only it - even making sure to never be reading more than one book at a time to avoid using another one. It's a true emotional connection. One day, however, it disappears."
If you find this prompt a bit too open-ended, add the following: "Then, the ransom letter arrived."
Since this is this is the very first week, my prompt is the only one, so I will be writing mine targeting it too. Hopefully we can get other submitters by next week!
As a reminder - only reply to this post with submissions, the #wwp announcement post is about to come up! -
CW: 📌 Weekly Writing Prompt
It's time for the Weekly Writing Prompt: #wwp
Here's the rules:
Every week, on Sunday (unless something goes wrong), I will make a post that links to a bunch of different writing prompts.
You have until the next Sunday to write something in response to it. Length and quality are up to you!
You can discuss the activity and this week's prompt using the #wwp hashtag.
You submit your prompt by replying to the prompt's post - do not reply to the prompt itself with non-submissions.
If your submission won't fit into your instance's character limit, use any pastebin system you want.
If you're interested in joining the list of people that write prompts, make sure to say so at the end of your submission. If I think you're a good fit, I'll contact you!
Note that if you submit yours just before it's time for the next, I obviously won't have the time to vet you for the next round.
