Na Janet Parker, ʻO ka Cap Times, Mei 9, 2022
No ka lā makuahine, ke kamaʻilio nei au a me ka hele ʻana no ka maluhia no kā mākou mau keiki a pau. ʻAʻole ʻo ke kaua ka pane.
ʻO ka hapa nui o ka nūhou US e like me ke kākoʻo no Ukrainians me ka hoʻouna ʻana i nā mea kaua hou aʻe. He kuhi hewa kēia. Pono ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa e kākoʻo i kahi hoʻopau koke a me nā kūkākūkā no ka maluhia.
World Beyond War he hui honua nona ka pahuhopu e hoʻopau i ke kaua. He kani maoli ʻole? ʻElua haneli mau makahiki i hala aku nei, nui ka poʻe i hoʻopaʻapaʻa ʻaʻole pono ka hoʻopau ʻana i ke kauā.
Aia ʻo Yurii Sheliazhenko ma ka papa o World Beyond War. He kanaka hoʻoikaika maluhia ʻo Ukrainian ma Kyiv. I ʻApelila, ʻo Sheliazhenko wehewehe, "ʻO ka mea e pono ai mākou ʻaʻole ka piʻi ʻana o ka hakakā me nā mea kaua hou aʻe, ʻoi aku ka hoʻopaʻi, ʻoi aku ka inaina iā Rūsia a me Kina, akā ʻoiaʻiʻo, ma kahi o kēlā, pono mākou i nā kamaʻilio maluhia ākea."
Mai ʻApelila 9, ma Madison ua mālama mākou i kēlā me kēia pule Peace Walks no Ukraine a me ka honua. ʻO ka hele ʻana o ka maluhia he ʻano hana nonviolent me ka lōʻihi mōʻaukala. Hele nā hui e kāhea i ka maluhia a me ka wehe ʻana i nā mea kaua. Hoʻokahi huakaʻi maluhia ma 1994 i hoʻomaka ma Auschwitz, Polani, a ʻewalu mahina ma hope mai ua pau i Nagasaki, Iapana.
Ma Wisconsin ma 2009, ua alakaʻi ka hui ʻo Iraq Veterans Against the War a me nā mea ʻē aʻe i kahi hele maluhia mai Camp Williams a i Fort McCoy. Ua kāhea mākou e hoʻopau i ke kaua ʻo Iraq, ʻo ia ka makahiki ʻeono. Ma kahi o 100,000 mau kānaka kīwila Iraqi i pepehi ʻia i kēlā kaua, akā ʻaʻole i nānā iki ko lākou make i kā mākou media.
Ua pōkole kā mākou huakaʻi maluhia - ma kahi o Monona Bay, mai Lake Monona a hiki i Lake Mendota. Ma waho o Madison, e hele maluhia mākou ma Yellowstone Lake ma Mei 21. Hele mākou ma nā alahele a me nā ala kaʻa - maikaʻi no nā noho huila, nā scooter, strollers, nā kaʻa liʻiliʻi, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. maanei. No nā kono i loko o kāu pahu pahu, e waiho iā mākou i kahi laina ma peacewalkmadison@gmail.com.
Hele mākou e hoʻokiʻekiʻe i ka leo o ka poʻe hoʻomalu maluhia e kū nei i ka lehulehu ma Ukraine a me Rusia. Lawe mākou i ka hae uliuli a keʻokeʻo, i hana ʻia e nā mea kūʻē Lūkini i kēia makahiki e hōʻike iā lākou kue i ke kaua.
Kākoʻo mākou iā Vova Klever a me Volodymyr Danuliv, nā kāne Ukrainian nāna haalele i ko lakou aina ma ke kanawai no ka mea, he poe kue lakou i ka oihana koa. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Klever, "ʻAʻole ka hana ʻino kaʻu mea kaua." Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Danuliv, "ʻAʻole hiki iaʻu ke pana i ka poʻe Lūkini."
Kākoʻo mākou i ka mea hoʻoikaika maluhia Lūkini Oleg Orlov, ka mea i ʻōlelo, “Ua maopopo iaʻu ke kiʻekiʻe o ka hihia karaima e kūʻē iaʻu a me koʻu mau hoa. Akā pono mākou e hana i kekahi mea ... ʻoiai ʻo ka hele wale ʻana me ka picket a kamaʻilio pololei e pili ana i nā mea e hana nei.
ʻO ka pule hope loa he mea pena Ukrainian Slava Borecki Ua hana ʻo ia i kahi kiʻi kiʻi one ma UK, i kapa ʻia ʻo ia he "noi no ka maluhia." Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Borecki, "E eo nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua ma muli o ka make a me ka pōʻino o kēia kaua."
Ke nānā nei mākou i nā mea weliweli o ke kaua ma Ukraine, ʻike mākou i ka huhū, ka makaʻu a me ka ʻeha. Ua nui aʻe ka poʻe i pepehi ʻia a ua lilo nā miliona i poʻe mahuka. Ke kau nei ka wi. Ke hōʻike nei kahi koho balota i kēia pule he ʻewalu i ka 10 poʻe ma US e hopohopo nei i ke kaua nuklea. Eia naʻe ke hoʻouna hou nei ko mākou aupuni i nā mea kaua. ʻO ka pepehi kanaka wale nō ka hewa i manaʻo ʻia he ʻae ʻia ke hana ʻia ma ke ʻano nui.
I kekahi lā i ka wā e hiki mai ana, e pau ke kaua ma Ukraine me nā kūkākūkā. No ke aha ʻaʻole e kūkākūkā i kēia manawa, ma mua o ka nui o ka poʻe e make?
Loaʻa iā Lockheed Martin, Raytheon a me nā hui mea kaua ʻē aʻe ka manaʻo ikaika e hoʻopanee i ka hopena o ke kaua. Ua haki ka mea kākau moʻolelo ʻo Matt Taibbi a moʻolelo koʻikoʻi i ka pule i hala ma kāna nūpepa Substack: Ke nānā nei mākou i nā kālepa no nā mea kūʻai mea kaua ma ka nūhou me ka ʻike ʻole. No ka laʻana, ua ninaninau ʻia ʻo Leon Panetta, i ʻike ʻia he kākau ʻōlelo pale mua. Kāhea ʻo ia e hoʻouna hou aku i nā missiles Stinger a me Javelin i Ukraine. ʻAʻole ʻo ia e hōʻike ʻo Raytheon, ka mea nāna i hana i kēlā mau missiles, ʻo ia ka mea kūʻai aku o kāna lobbying firm. Ua uku ʻia ʻo ia no ka pana ʻana i nā missile i ka lehulehu.
Lawe mākou i kahi hōʻailona ma kā mākou huakaʻi maluhia e ʻōlelo ana, "ʻO nā mea hana mea kaua wale nō ka lanakila."
I ko mākou hele ʻana, ke kamaʻilio nei mākou i kekahi manawa. I kekahi manawa hele hāmau mākou. I kekahi manawa hīmeni mākou i kahi mele i kapa ʻia ʻo "When I Rise." Ua aʻo mākou iā ia mai nā mōneka ma ke kaiāulu o ka mea aloha aloha Vietnamese Buddhist aloha ʻo Thich Nhat Hanh.
Aloha mākou iā ʻoe e hele pū me mākou no ka maluhia.
ʻO Janet Parker he mea hoʻoikaika maluhia a he makuahine ma Madison.
