716-332-3904 10/15/19 wnypeace.org

Dear Friends,

Once again, it’s all hands on deck to vigil and protest at the Erie County Holding Center (ECHC) on Wednesday at 4-6pm (in front of the ECHC, on Delaware between Church & Eagle). There was yet another death at the ECHC – 4 under the Sheriff’s watch in 4 months. Outrageous and heartbreaking. Please bring signs – and determination for real change to systemic violence and abysmal neglect!

Also, our 52nd Annual Dinner is only three (yes! 3) weeks away! Please get your tickets (easy to order on the website – including 3 menu options). Medea Benjamin of CodePink will be energizing as always on the topic: No Green New Deal Without Peace; Growing Our Peace Through Justice Economy. We are also looking forward to hearing WNY Resistance Revival Chorus sing and get the Alt-imate Activist Award; and to giving Valentino Dixon the Emerging Leaders Award! As most of you know, Valentino was just released when exonerated after 27 years of outrageous, unjust incarceration. Dinner tickets are available on our website!

So it’s also all hands on deck to support your WNY Peace Center. We do need the funds to continue organizing and offering vital services to the community. Please donate items for the basket raffle and silent auction! Or put an ad or message in the dinner program book. Please contact us at info@wnypeace.org, and/or call the office 716-332-3904.

Please join our Friends of Democracy Now! campaign. To keep it on WBNY, we must raise funds. Please contribute to WNYPC – online or with a check sent (and made out) to WNY Peace Center, 1272 Delaware Ave, Buffalo, NY 14209, and write in the memo line: Friends of Democracy Now! (or in a note with the online submission). Truth-telling is needed, and Democracy Now! is the one to do it!
And of course, tune in to DEMOCRACY NOW! BROADCAST Live MONDAY-FRIDAY, 8AM-9AM (LIVE) ON WBNY 91.3FM. or streaming live at wbny.buffalostate.edu.

Vigil Weds, 4-6pm ECHC; Anne Frank Fest, Oct 2-3; Dinner News!

716-332-3904 10/1/19 wnypeace.org

Dear Friends,

We hope you had a good week, as we continue on this work of Peace Through Justice at home and abroad.

–Holding Sheriff/Deputy Accountable
One justice victory was that a deputy sheriff was held accountable for reckless assault, official misconduct, and falsifying business records!

Thanks to DA Flynn’s office and the courageous, clear-headed people on the jury. No thanks to Sheriff Howard, who hung around the courtroom in uniform conferring with the defense; and the police union whose knee-jerk blaming of the DA seems unethical and immoral. Right and wrong should matter; guilt should matter. Ironically, in defense of the union’s criticizing the prosecutor, the DA reminded them of a history of defending the police and having gotten an officer cleared of a shooting in Springville.

So we once again invite you to the Erie County Holding Center (ECHC) Vigil on Wednesday at 4-6pm in front of the ECHC, on Delaware between Church & Eagle, Please bring signs – and determination for real change to systemic violence and racism! Too many deaths, too much brutality, too terrible an administration – Sheriff Howard is yet another elected official who needs to be impeached.

–52nd Annual Dinner – Medea; and Women’s Resistance Revival Chorus!
Now that it’s October, our 52nd Annual Dinner is right around the corner. We will also be making some very special awards! The Women’s Resistance Revival Chorus of WNY will get the Alt-imate Activist Award, named for WNY Peace Center lifelong stalwart member, organizer, and activist, Wayne Alt. The WNY Resistance Revival Chorus has generously shared their joy of music, kindled by founder Drea D’Nur, and always shows up when most needed! Come hear them and honor them. Tickets are available on our website!

–The Anne Frank Project holds it social justice conference at Buff State starting tomorrow evening, with full days of experiential learning on collaboration and activism on Weds & Thurs, Oct 2nd (Gandhi’s Birthday) and 3rd, (most sessions in Campbell Student Union). Please register for this wonderful, fun, and free event at annefrankproject.com (info and link also on our wnypeace.org website). We’ll be PeaceJamming with Roc Da Mic/Lonnie & Co. on Weds at 3:30-5pm in the Social Hall of the Student Union, Buff State. Bring an instrument if you play, and your free and adventurous spirit if you think you don’t!

–And don’t forget to register for the World On Your Plate Conference, held at Daemen College on Fri & Sat, Oct 11-12. It will be an even-better-than-ever smorgasboard – all about food: nutrition, food politics, and actual great food! Don’t miss it.

–Our Talking Peace radio show (on WBNY 91.3FM, streaming at wbny.buffalostate.edu) on Monday, October 7th, when it’ll be 18 years of war on Afghanistan, we will have a very special guest – Kathy Kelly, of Voices for Creative Nonviolence. You’ll get updates on Afghanistan and the Afghan Peace Volunteers, and much more. Don’t miss it!

–Please join our new campaign to support the very important local airing of Democracy Now! on WBNY. To keep it going, we need to do some fundraising. So we ask you to send your most generous contribution to WNYPC – online or with a check sent (and made out) to WNY Peace Center, 1272 Delaware Ave, Buffalo, NY 14209, and write in the memo line: Friends of Democracy Now! (or in a note with the online submission). We need to keep it on the air here in WNY for our youth, our neighbors, and ourselves!
And remember to tune in to DEMOCRACY NOW! BROADCAST Live MONDAY-FRIDAY, 8AM-9AM (LIVE) ON WBNY 91.3FM. Hear it over the radio or streaming live at wbny.buffalostate.edu.

At SUNY Buffalo State, Campbell Student Union, Social Hall. You’ll be glad if you come out for any part of this free 2-day festival on Collaboration and Activism for Social Change! Registration & Schedule link(s) below.
Communities across the world grapple with conflicts, challenging discussions, and injustices that often remain ignored. When these important stories fall silent, communities break apart, and individuals are left alone. There is an opportunity within this struggle to unite and rebuild. AFP 2019 will examine unique ways in which people solve problems through the art of collaboration. In the Anne Frank Project there is a specific philosophy that relates to this year’s theme: We agree we cannot do it alone. Whether we work across disciplines, neighborhoods, or countries, we need each other to manage conflicts, embrace challenges and stand strong in the face of injustice. In honor of Anne Frank’s would-be 90th birthday this June, we encourage activists, artists, performers, and community leaders to share methods, practices, and experiences that ask people to come together to engage for change.
