About Peace & Solidarity

WCRC's Peace and Solidarity Program raises the voices of women of color in opposition to war and militarism. War, militarism and state violence distort and destroy women's lives worldwide. Every woman in the US is affected. Every woman suffers from the massive deformation of the national budget - a budget that magically transforms our tax dollars into fabulous profits for defense contractors, but comes up short for education, childcare and healthcare.

All too often the US government initiates, aggravates or funds military adventures that contribute to the poverty, insecurity and violence that women experience worldwide.

Women in the U.S. have a special responsibility to the women of the world, especially to our sisters in the global south, to check the national impulse toward military aggression. To speak out and organize for peace and human security. To oppose the logic and consequences of corporate globalization. And to develop relations of sisterhood and solidarity with women organizing for human rights and security in other regions of the world.

WCRC's Peace and Solidarity Program focuses on the gender and race dimensions of war, militarism and empire building. WCRC educates and mobilizes women of color as participants and leaders in the global effort to build a world at peace.
