WILPF Monthly Meetings: WILPF Triangle meets for monthly business on the 2nd Saturday of the month, from 10am-noon. Almost all of these meetings are virtual on Zoom. WILPF Triangle also has virtual informal discussions every 4th Saturday of the month, from 11am-12noon. To receive WILPF Triangle's weekly calendar of social justice events, including Zoom links to the business meeting and informal discussion groups, contact Lucy Lewis at llewis2001@earthlink.net to get added to our listserv. WILPF Triangle doesn't meet in February each year since the 2nd Saturday of February is always HKonJ (Historic Thousands on Jones Street); instead we mobilize and invite all our friends and allies to join us in Raleigh. WILPF also doesn't meet in July; instead we have a table at the annual Carrboro July 4 activities. WILPF is a partner organization of the NAACP-led HKOnJ/Forward Together Moral Movement in protest. Numerous WILPF members have already exercised our constitutional right to petition the legislature with our grievances and been arrested along with almost 100 friends and allies from across the state - and the number is growing. For more information, go to the Moral March section of www.hkonj.com. US WILPF is an endorsing partner of the Poor People's Campaign, and Triangle WILPF members are active participants in PPC activities. We support the PPC goals, including "lifting up and deepening the leadership of those most affected by systemic racism, poverty, the war economy, and ecological devastation and to building unity across lines of division."
