(Re)Collection
A WGS Quarterly Publication
about the newsletter
| Dear Readers:
(RE)Collection is a newsletter that illuminates the work
of those committed to a culture of peace. (RE)Collection developed
from the collaboration of U.S. based activists who are part
of the WGS connection. WGS envisions a world of genuine security
based on justice, respect for others across national boundaries,
and economic planning that meets people's needs, especially
women and children. WGS work toward the creation of a society
free of militarism, violence, and all forms of sexual exploitation,
and for the safety, well-being, and long-term sustainability
of our communities. The newsletter entries attempt to document snapshots of the thoughts and work of women in the WGS network and our allies in IWNAM.

AILEEN SUZARA:
I’m a second generation Filipina
American, environmental justice advocate, and member of
the Filipino/American Coalition for Environmental Solidarity
(FACES). Hawai’i and the Philippines are two landscapes
that first opened my eyes to militarism and its impacts
on our bodies, cultures and environment. I believe that
women’s voices and creativity are among the most
powerful, elemental forces in existence. |
