<p>The activists from the militant peace organization Code Pink—in conjunction with the Dissenters, Jewish Voice for Peace, Students for Justice in Palestine, and a host of others—are calling for mass mobilizations in Chicago at the Democratic National Convention, which will be held from August 19-22, 2024. Their goal is to issue a thundering response to the US-sponsored, Israeli-led and preannounced genocide in Gaza, and to shine an illuminating light on US complicity with Israel in destroying Palestinian lives and communities. This episode is a broadcast of a webinar with Eleanor Stein, Medea Benjamin, and Bill Ayers organized by Code Pink earlier this month. We urge everyone to come to Chicago if at all possible, and to contribute to building an irresistible peace and justice movement NOW!</p>

The Whole World is Watching with Medea Benjamin, Code Pink, and Eleanor Stein

“Under the Tree” is a new podcast that focuses on freedom—a complex, layered, dynamic, and often contradictory idea—and takes you on a journey each week to fundamentally reimagine how we can bring freedom and liberation to life in relation to schools and schooling, equality and justice, and learning to live together in peace.

Our podcast opens a crawl-space, a fugitive field and firmament where we can both explore our wildest freedom dreams, and organize for a liberating insurgency. "Under the Tree" is a seminar, and it runs the gamut from current events to the arts, from history lessons to scientific inquiries, and from essential readings to frequent guest speakers. 

We’re in the midst of the largest social uprising in US history—and what better time to dive headfirst into the wreckage, figuring out as we go how to support the rebellion, name it, and work together to realize its most radical possibilities—and to reach its farthest horizons?
