** EL ESPAÑOL SIGUE EL INGLES **

After four nightmarish years of Trump, we need to do more than breathe sighs of relief as the Biden-Harris administration takes office.

During previous Democratic administrations, many hoped that the rhetoric about promoting diversity and ending “stupid wars” would translate into sweeping civil rights progress and redress growing economic inequalities. Instead we got:

** continuing police murders of Black and Brown people

** bailouts of banks and other big businesses while millions lost their homes

** failure to honor long-standing promises to legislate a level playing field for unions to organize

** expansions of U.S. wars

** expansion of already-bloated Pentagon budgets

** arms exports to oppressive governments

** drone bombings

** record deportations

** record attacks on whistle-blowers

** continued attacks on the right to choose abortion, and

** huge expansion of the petroleum industry thru fracking.

We cannot afford another Democratic administration that fails to meet the needs of those who hoped it would bring sweeping change. If there is little progress to diminish the huge inequalities in this country, many will drift into apathy or end up supporting another right-wing demagogue in 2024.

We must pro-actively make demands on the new Biden-Harris administration:

** End State Repression & Institutional Racism

** Promote an Economy That Serves Working Class People
http://ccawr.org/promote-an-economy-that-serves-working…/

Evento del Comité de Chicago contra la Guerra y el Racismo

230 S Dearborn St, Chicago, IL 60603, Estados Unidos

Martes, 19 de enero de 2021 a las 4 PM CST – 5 PM CST

Después de cuatro años de la pesadilla de Trump, necesitamos hacer más que suspirar con alivio cuando la nueva administración demócrata Biden-Harris asuma el cargo.

Durante las administraciones demócratas anteriores, muchos esperaban que la retórica sobre la promoción de la diversidad y el fin de las “guerras estúpidas” se tradujera en un avance radical de los derechos civiles y corrigiera las crecientes desigualdades económicas.

En cambio, lo que obtuvimos fue:

** continuos asesinatos policiales de personas negras y latinas

** rescates económicos de bancos y otras grandes empresas mientras millones perdieron sus hogares

** incumplimiento de las viejas promesas de leyes para lograr un terreno de juego nivelado para que los sindicatos puedan organizar

** expansiones de las guerras de Estados Unidos

** expansión de los presupuestos del Pentágono ya de por sí abultados

** exportación de armas a gobiernos opresores

** bombardeos con ‘drones’ (aviones no tripulados)

** récords del número de deportaciones

**ataques récord a denunciantes de corrupción gubernamental** continuos ataques contra el derecho a elegir el aborto, y

** enorme expansión de la industria petrolera a través del fracking.

No podemos permitirnos otra administración demócrata que no satisfaga las necesidades de quienes esperaban que trajera un cambio radical. Si hay poco progreso para disminuir las enormes desigualdades en este país, muchos caerán en la apatía o terminarán apoyando a otro demagogo de la derecha en las elecciones del 2024.

Debemos hacer demandas proactivamente a la nueva administración de Biden-Harris:

** Fin al Estado de Represión y Racismo Institucional
http://ccawr.org/end-state-repression-institutional-racism/

** Promover una economía que sirva a la gente de la clase trabajadora
http://ccawr.org/promote-an-economy-that-serves-working…/

** Vivienda, alimentos, educación y atención médica son derechos humanos
http://ccawr.org/housing-food-education-healthcare-are…/

** Tenemos el derecho a controlar nuestros cuerpos
http://ccawr.org/we-have-the-right-to-control-our-bodies/

** Paz y derechos humanos mundialmente
http://ccawr.org/international-peace-human-rights/

** Proteger el planeta, Protegernos a todos

Trump Out Now!

Donald J. Trump and his co-conspirators orchestrated an attempted coup d’etat in Washington, D.C on January 7th. They acted to overthrow the clear and unchallenged vote of the largest number of people to have voted in U. S. history.

We join with the millions of people who, who through their unions, churches, and community organizations are demanding the immediate removal of Donald Trump from office and his arrest.

Join us for a rally and march/car caravan on Monday, January 18th, noon at Federal Plaza.

Join End Northside Racism as we cap off our 10 Days of Action initiative with a march and candlelight vigil honoring victims of police brutality. Victims of the CPD and police authorities across the country are left voiceless. LET THEIR VOICES BE HEARD! Now more than ever, we need to stand with our Black & Brown neighbors who are disproportionately effected by police crimes. Let’s show our city that we will not let cops get away with this behavior any longer. This is strictly a peaceful protest.

We will be collecting new and gently used coats for Brave Space Alliance. There is a great need for coats of all sizes for our less fortunate community members, let’s show up for them!

Starting point is Lakeview Lutheran Church (835 Addison) across from 19th precinct police station at 4pm. We will have cider and hot chocolate available in case of colder weather. MASKS REQUIRED.

Please consider participating in our 10 Days of Action. You can find more information on our website: endnorthsideracism.com

Join communities from across Illinois for a virtual rally in support of the Pretrial Fairness Act on Thursday, November 12th at 3pm.

Hear from legislators, impacted people and community leaders about why Illinois needs to end money bail and dramatically reduce the number of people incarcerated pretrial. Tune-in on the Coalition to End Money Bond’s facebook page.

You can learn more about the Pretrial Fairness Act at: endmoneybond.org/pretrialfairness

12:30pm: Join CAARPR at our rendezvous point at Grassy area between Ashland & Union Park baseball field, north of Washington Blvd.

Rally begins at 1pm: Union Park

Trump is using racist tactics to enforce voter suppression in contending states where we know there are millions of black votes that have yet to be counted. We demand that all votes be counted!

OUR DEMANDS:

• Stop Police Crimes! Community Control of Police! Defund the Police!
• Extend and expand economic relief for the unemployed!
• Stop the evictions and utility shut offs!
• Protect the health care that we have, we want health care for all!
• Fight the pandemic!
• Stop the racist attacks on immigrants and harassment of Asian Americans!

In this triple pandemic of racism, COVID-19, and recession our National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression is issuing a call to all the democratic forces presently engaged in the struggle against racist injustice, the economic slaughter of our communities and the utterly unspeakable failure at all levels to use its full capacity to stop the death march of the corona virus across the land.
