Na ka Bronx Anti-War Coalition i hoʻonohonoho i ka hōʻike.

"ʻO ka hapakolu o nā wahine i ka pūʻali koa e ʻike i ka hoʻomāinoino a me ka hoʻouka kaua," wahi a Richie Merino, he kumu kula aupuni Bronx a me ka mea hoʻonohonoho kaiāulu. “Ua ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o nā kumukūʻai no nā wahine kala.

Ma waho o ka AOC i kākoʻo ʻia i ka hōʻiliʻili koa, ua kamaʻilio ʻo Mohammed Latifu o ka Bronx i kahi hui o nā lālā o ke kaiāulu. Ua ʻākoakoa ka hui no ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana i ke kaikunāne o Latifu he 21 makahiki, ʻo Abdul Latifu, ka mea i pepehi ʻia ma Ianuali 10 ma Fort Rucker, kahi kahua kaua US ma Alabama. ʻElima mahina wale nō i noho ai ʻo Abdul i loko o ka pūʻali koa i ka wā i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ai ʻo ia i ka make me ka ʻōpala e kekahi koa.

Me ka waimaka, ua haʻi ʻo Mohammed pehea ʻo ia a me kona ʻohana i mālama ʻia i ka pōʻeleʻele e nā mea noiʻi koa a ke kali nei i nā pane. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ʻaʻole hiki i ko lākou mau mākua ke hiamoe i ka pō ma muli o ka pepehi kanaka naʻaupō o kā lāua keiki ʻo Abdul.

"Makemake nui mākou e lohe i ka mea i hana ʻia," wahi a Latifu. “He aha ka mea i hana? He aha ka mea i hanaia? A hiki i kēia lā, ʻaʻohe pane. ʻAʻohe kelepona. ʻAʻole loaʻa iā mākou nā mea hou. ʻO kēlā me kēia mea e noʻonoʻo ana e hoʻokomo i kā lākou keiki i ka pūʻali koa, manaʻo wau e noʻonoʻo hou ʻoe. Mai hana. ʻAʻole au e ʻaʻa e noi i nā hoaaloha o kaʻu keiki a i ʻole kekahi e komo i ka pūʻali koa.

'Pepehi lākou i kā lākou iho'

"'Ōlelo lākou ua 'pale' lākou i ka ʻāina," i hoʻomau ai ʻo Latifu. “Ke pepehi nei lakou i ko lakou iho. Ke hoʻomāinoino nei lākou i kēia mau wahine hele i laila. ʻO kēia mau keiki, nā kāne ʻōpio a me nā wahine e hele ana i laila, ua hoʻomāinoino ʻia lākou, a laila pepehi lākou iā lākou a hoʻāʻo e uhi.

"E haʻi aku lākou iā ʻoe, 'e kala mai i ka mea i hana ʻia, ko mākou aloha aloha.' ʻAʻole, e mālama i kou aloha! Makemake mākou i nā pane. ʻO ka mea a mākou e makemake ai ʻo ka hoʻopono - ka hoʻopono no ka poʻe a pau i hoʻomanawanui i kēia a me ko lākou mau ʻohana, "wahi a Latifu.

Ma waho o ka hanana, ua hōʻike nā ʻelele mai IFCO (Interreligious Foundation for Community Organization) / Pastors for Peace i nā haumāna e pili ana i nā ala ʻē aʻe e "hele a ʻike i ka honua" me ka ʻole o ka pūʻali koa. Ua kamaʻilio lākou e pili ana i ke noi ʻana i ke Kula Lapaʻau ʻAmelika ʻAmelika (ELAM) ma Cuba a loaʻa i kahi kēkelē lapaʻau manuahi. Nā mele o “Cuba Sí, Bloqueo No!” poha i ka lehulehu.

ʻO Claude Copeland Jr., he kumu Bronx a he lālā o About Face: Veterans Against the War, i haʻi aku i kāna mau ʻike ma ke ʻano he mea i loaʻa i ka papa hana ʻilihune. Ua kamaʻilio ʻo ia e pili ana i ka hoʻokumu ʻana o ka poʻe recruiters i ka pūʻali i ke ala hoʻokahi e holomua i ka ʻoihana a palekana i nā hale kūʻokoʻa. ʻAʻole lākou i haʻi iā ia e pili ana i nā koho a i ʻole nā ​​​​koho ʻē aʻe. Inā ʻaʻohe āu kumu, "pono ​​ʻoe e kau inoa i kou ola," wahi āna.

Ua hoʻohewa nā lālā o ke kaiāulu iā Ocasio-Cortez no ka haʻalele ʻana i kāna mau ʻōlelo hoʻohiki antiwar e kūʻē i nā hana hoʻolālā predatory e nā pūʻali koa US, nāna e hoʻopaʻa i nā keiki ʻōpio, haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa ʻEleʻele a me Latinx.

"ʻEkolu mau makahiki i hala aku nei," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo Merino, "ua hoʻopuka ʻo AOC i kahi hoʻololi e pāpā ai i ka poʻe hoʻolimalima koa mai ka huli ʻana i nā keiki i ka wā ʻōpio he 12 ma o ka pāʻani pūnaewele. Hoʻomaopopo ʻo ia i ka pūʻali koa US i kāʻili ʻia i nā keiki palupalu a hoʻoweliweli. No ka hoʻohana ʻana o AOC i kona kūlana kaulana e poʻomanaʻo i kahi hanana hoʻomaʻamaʻa pūʻali koa kula kiʻekiʻe, ma ka Bronx, e hōʻailona ana ua huli ʻo ia i ke kaiāulu ʻeleʻele, Brown a me ka poʻe malihini i koho iā ia i keʻena.
