Webinar - Immigration and Metro Chicago: Lessons of Inclusion
2020-10-22 14:00 - 15:00 (America/New_York) | NH, United States
The Chicago area has a rich history of immigration, a story that continues to this day: 1.6 million of the 9 million residents in metro Chicago are immigrants. Chicago has also been recognized as one of the most immigrant-friendly cities in the country, with various local government initiatives and a network of nonprofit actors that work to create an environment of inclusion.
Following the recently published report “A Global Welcome: Metro Chicago’s Approach to Immigrant Inclusion,” Welcoming America and the Chicago Council on Global Affairs invite you to a Zoom livestream event during which panelists will discuss the lessons learned in Chicago and how these policies of inclusion can be implemented in other contexts and cities.

Online - Peace & Justice Conversations: The Nightmare of US Immigration Policy and Strategies for Resistance and Solidarity
2020-10-26 07:00 | NH, United States
In this NH Peace Action Conversation Series broadcast we are joined by two passionate advocates for immigrant justice in New Hampshire, Maggie Fogarty and Grace Kindeke, who will talk about the oppressive tactics of ICE and CBP in the Granite State and the organizing work of the AFSC and others who stand in solidarity with immigrants.
We will look at some of the most shocking abuses of ICE including the involuntary sterilization of women, inadequate protections against COVID-19 for detainees, the movement to dismantle ICE and CBP and the opportunities for humane immigration policy in the next administration.
The U.S. immigration system violates civil and human rights and terrorizes our communities. This violence did not begin with the Trump administration but has escalated in recent years, with increased surveillance, checkpoints, separation of families, profit-driven incarceration, denial of asylum rights, and increased danger to immigrants who are detained during the pandemic. Instead of acting as the service agency it was originally designed to be, federal immigration officials are increasingly involved in the administration’s authoritarian response to racial justice protests and operate with apparent impunity.
U.S. immigration policies are rooted in many decades of U.S. foreign, military, and economic policies that deny human rights and undermine security abroad. These policies have become a driving factor of forced migration; creating the circumstances that displace people from their homes while also then punishing them for seeking refuge in the U.S.
How are immigrants and allies responding to these realities? What are the demands of the immigrant rights movement for humane immigration policy?
Maggie Fogarty – Maggie is the Director of the NH Program for the American Friends Service Committee. Her work includes organizing, coalition-building and advocacy for immigrant rights, affordable housing, tenant and worker rights and ending homelessness. She coordinates NH Voices of Faith and the NH Immigrant Rights Network and is co-director of the NH Immigrant Visitation Program at the Strafford County jail. Maggie was a founding member of Housing Action NH and served for many years on the boards of the Concord Coalition to End Homelessness and New American Africans. She has worked for AFSC-NH since 2007. She lives with her family in Dover, NH.
Grace Kindeke – Grace is an artist, a dancer, and an activist earning a B.A. in Africana Studies and Sociology at UMASS Boston. Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo, she immigrated to the U.S. as a toddler and grew up in Manchester, NH. In 2013, Grace moved to Boston where she strengthened her voice, performed from her ancestral roots, and deepened her commitment to Black liberation, systemic justice, and generational healing. In 2018 gentrification encouraged her and her husband to move back to New Hampshire. She brings her intersecting experiences and perspectives as an African, a woman, and an immigrant to her work as AFSC-NH’s new Program Coordinator.

2020-12-07 19:00 - 20:00 | NH, United States
What is anti-Semitism, how does it work, and how is it fighting it connected to other movements for justice?

Jenni Walkup, anthropologist and organizer, will share her story of growing up Jewish in New Hampshire, and the anti-Semitism that she experienced. She’ll talk about what it means to understand Jewish marginalization as not that bad, and how she came to understand the deep connections between anti-Semitic, anti-Black and anti-poor ideologies.

Using those stories as a jumping-off point, we’ll walk through the history of anti-Semitism and begin to understand how it manages to re-emerge seemingly out of nowhere. All are invited to join us for this guided discussion.

Webinar - Virtual & Outdoor Community Building
2020-12-15 14:00 - 15:00 | NH, United States
**Please note: You must register via Zoom to attend**
The inability to convene in person (due to Covid-19) continues to pose challenges for service providers, local government offices, and others who deliver community-based programs.

Online - Peace & Justice Conversations: Housing Jubilee: Stories of Housing Justice in NH
2020-12-21 19:00 - 20:00 | NH, United States
Jubilee is stories from landlords, formerly homeless, and tenants about housing in NH.
We’ll hear from Martin Toe about Granite State Organizing Project’s Housing Jubilee Campaign here in New Hampshire.
Debt jubilee, a practice going back 4,000 years, is an established way of resetting economies that are burdened by excessive personal and collective debt. As we emerge from the economic devastation of the COVID-19 pandemic, we must consider this way of returning to individual and collective economic wholeness.
A particularly critical form of debt is for housing. We were in a national crisis before the pandemic began, with nearly half of all renters spending more than 30% of their income on housing costs and more than 25% paying more than 50% of their income. The Covid-19 crisis hit these households harder than most, as many of them depended on jobs that were lost when the economy partially closed. Some short-term assistance in the form of extra unemployment and one-time relief checks delayed the inevitable impact on these families. Many states have allocated CARES Act money to help people pay their back rent incurred during the state of emergency, but indications are that the NH one-time allocation of $2,500 per household will not be enough to prevent a tide of evictions.

Kwanzaa (African-American/Pan-African)
2020-12-26 - 2021-01-01 | NH, United States
“As an African American and Pan-African holiday celebrated by millions throughout the world African community, Kwanzaa brings a cultural message which speaks to the best of what it means to be African and human in the fullest sense. Given the profound significance Kwanzaa has for African Americans and indeed, the world African community, it is imperative that an authoritative source and site be made available to give an accurate and expansive account of its origins, concepts, values, symbols and practice.” – Dr. Maulana Karenga, www.officialkwanzaawebsite.org
Dr. Maulana Karenga, professor and chairman of Black Studies at California State University, Long Beach, created Kwanzaa in 1966. After the Watts riots in Los Angeles, Dr. Karenga searched for ways to bring African-Americans together as a community. He founded US, a cultural organization, and started to research African “first fruit” (harvest) celebrations. Karenga combined aspects of several different harvest celebrations, such as those of the Ashanti and those of the Zulu, to form the basis of Kwanzaa.
The name Kwanzaa is derived from the phrase “matunda ya kwanza” which means “first fruits” in Swahili. Each family celebrates Kwanzaa in its own way, but celebrations often include songs and dances, African drums, storytelling, poetry reading, and a large traditional meal.

In addition, listeners will hear from Dr. Clayborne Carson, who has been directing the King Papers Project since 1985.
Scholars chose the following speeches:

King’s last address, the night before his assassination in 1968;
the speech he made a year to the day before he was killed, called “Beyond Vietnam”;
Dr. King’s remarks that he made at the conclusion of the Selma to Montgomery marches in March of 1965, considered a turning point in the struggle for Voting Rights and equality for Black Americans.

Monday, January 18

The second special, a live call-in episode of The Exchange, will air on the MLK Day holiday. and re-air the same evening from 9 to 10 p.m. Host Laura Knoy will talk with Black activists and civil rights historians about recent events and what wisdom and lessons they take from Dr. King’s life and words.
