The violence and destruction in the world call for our attention and engagement now. Choose your cause, choose your action and engage now. Act locally or globally, and I hope you do. I will do both.

Please see this zine on “Gaza, “Calling for a Dharma response” presented by AN INTERNATIONAL

COALITION OF DHARMA TEACHERS, LEADERS,SANGHA MEMBERS, AND ORGANIZATIONS.

I am in agreement with the information shared in this zine about the genocide (it is a genocide) in Gaza and appreciate the powerful and thoughtful leadership of these authors.

“There is suffering. There is work to be done. May we be the ones to do it.” Buddhistdoor Global

“...engaged practice carries the medicine.” Deborah Eden Tull

“And peace without justice is no peace at all.” MIRA SUCHAROV

Many countries continue to experience political and neocolonial oppression (including the U.S.), dealing with authoritarian rule, economic exploitation, and foreign influence that hinders their self-determination and development. Some of the most affected countries are: Palestine, Western Sahara, Myanmar (Burma), Kashmir (India-Pakistan Dispute), Tibet (China), Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Haiti, Indigenous Communities in the Americas, African Nations Facing Neocolonialism - Countries such as Mali, Niger, and Chad. And the U.S. is now experiencing an oppressive fascist regime in power.

These all face various forms of political and colonial oppression, whether through direct occupation, economic exploitation, or external political interference. Please be engaged, learn about colonialism and oppression (incl the U.S) and racism, watch non - commercial news sources to follow these regions and nations - talk about these issues, boycott companies that support their exploitation, and give your support.

Please also pay attention, be aware and provide your support and efforts to mitigate global warming. That is of course another vast issue and we know there are many resources for how we can help.
