On October 25, 2023, after just three weeks of the bombardment of Gaza, Omar El Akkad put out a tweet: “One day, when it’s safe, when there’s no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it’s too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.” This tweet has been viewed more than 10 million times.

GREEN PARTY OF PIMA COUNTY PLATFORM
- Grassroots Democracy
- Social Justice
- Non-violence
- Ecological Sustainability
|
We are an eco-socialist political party and part of a world-wide movement for human needs before profits. We are independent of the two corporate capitalist parties and accept no contributions from corporations.
There is a glaring contradiction between our rich society’s potential to fulfill human needs and the cruel, dangerous reality we live under today.
For over 100 years, the corporate-controlled Democratic and Republican parties representing the super-rich have held political power focused on enriching themselves at the expense of the rest of us.
They have now brought the world to the precipice of environmental collapse, nuclear war or both.
Isn’t it time for a change?
We can create a just society with peace, freedom, democracy and prosperity for all in a sustainable environment.
Help us transform our economy from one that destroys our unique desert environment and pollutes our drinking water to one that protects people, the land and the water.
