Jew World Order

An organizer and analyst we deeply respect, “Training for Change” co-founder George Lakey, recently suggested Voices help maintain a list of organizations in the U.S. which are helping people prepare for the possibility of a stolen election, a rigged election, or an outright coup following November 3rd voting in the U.S.. In a nation with rapidly dwindling concern for democracy, the principle of nonviolent community organizing for democracy has seldom seemed so urgent.

We’re impressed by the quality of outreach and organizing which has already developed in cities and states across the U.S. This is a mere sampling of what we’ve learned so far. We’ll strive to keep a version of the following list up to date below, in no particular order but tending to keep upcoming event and training dates at the top of the list.

Shanti Sena Network
www.mettacenter.org/shanti-sena/
The Shanti Sena Network (SSN) comprises members from peace teams from around the US and Canada, and is open to members worldwide. Passionate about building a new paradigm of security, members of SSN want to use nonviolent ways of resolving conflicts without the potentially violent intervention from “law enforcement” or the military. The Shanti Sena Network is grounded in the Gandhian principles of “unity in diversity” and holding a high image of human potential. Shanti Sena means “peace team” in Sanskrit (see the formal definition in our glossary). A Shanti Sena is the nonviolent alternative to a violent “peacekeeping” system. More than just maintaining peace, a Shanti Sena aims to transform how we think about peace, envisioning a paradigm shift in the way we perceive human security. SSN reinforces a high image of the human being and holds space for parties in conflict to move into closer understanding and relationship of each other. A Shanti Sena is revolutionary because it refuses to maintain its legitimacy through violence, instead seeking ways of embodying a deep commitment to the practice of nonviolence.
