Beyond War and Militarism (BWaM) is a joint committee of the SPC and the CNY Solidarity Coalition. Our goal is to increase awareness of the dangers resulting from government and corporate militaristic policies and practices.
Dedicated to nonviolence in work with Syracuse Veterans for Peace, World Beyond War and Upstate Drone Action, the team seeks to raise awareness of the corrupting, dangerous and immoral behavior by, and for, the corporate-dominated state that promotes war and militarism, while stealing resources from urgent needs in the United States and worldwide. Actions may include commemorating Armistice Day, developing/promoting lecture series, petitioning and meeting with elected representatives, protests and rallies.
