A virtual event sponsored by Asian American and Pacific Islander Studies Program.

What does a world without militarism look like? Asking this unaskable question is more urgent than ever amidst a growing US militarization in the Pacific that threatens planetary life. Join this virtual event and learn from an international panel of activists, artists, and scholars about the grassroots movements against US militarism in Guåhan (Guam), Hawai‘i, Jeju, and Okinawa, and the efforts toward building an international movement.
