Enjoy the summer with MAPA’s administrative director and Palestine/Iran campaign organizer, Cole Harrison, and Racial Justice/Indigenous Solidarity co-chair, Claire Gosselin, at their home in Roslindale!

Attendees will also have the opportunity to learn more about MAPA’s efforts to end the ongoing genocide in Gaza and Lebanon, reconcile with Iran, China, and Cuba, end the war in Ukraine, cut the Pentagon budget, roll back MAGA, establish racial justice, and face the twin existential threats of climate change and nuclear weapons.

There will be plenty of refreshments, with vegan options available.

If interested in attending, make sure to call for Cole and Claire’s address!  We’re about 2 miles from Forest Hills and a 8 minute walk from Roslindale Square, and can pick you up at Forest Hills  (advance notice would help).  (617) 469-9838 or write info@masspeaceaction.org.
