End the Ulchi Freedom Shield exercises! US Out of Korea! US Out of the Philippines! US Out of Asia Pacific! US Out of Everywhere!
A rally and march on Aug. 15 starting at the Korea War Memorial in Philadelphia, ending at Senator Fetterman's office blocks away demanded an end to war exercises and to US occupation of S. Korea.
In recognition of 80 years of U.S. occupation and in opposition to war exercises, progressive organizations and movements across South Korea converged for a national day of mobilization on Aug. 15.
There were protests in 6 U.S. cities as well, with the following demands:
U.S. out of Korea!
Cancel the Ulchi Freedom Shield war games!
Every year on August 15, the anniversary of the end of Japanese occupation in 1945 but the start of US occupation, the U.S. and South Korea hold their largest series of war games in Korea: Ulchi Freedom Shield. During these military exercises, the two countries -with thousands of troops - rehearse the weapons, maneuvers, and strategies they would use in the event of the invasion and occupation of North Korea and even the use of nuclear weapons against the Korean people. The exercises are a real threat and provocation against North Korea.
Washington’s claims these exercises are “defensive” is a lie. They are really rehearsing war crimes against the people of Korea as well as China.
As the U.S. spends over a trillion dollars this year on waging wars around the globe, our transit systems, healthcare, education and other community needs are being cut. Imperialist wars are simply not in the interest of the vast majority of people!
And we don’t need another war in which millions of lives will be at risk!
This rally was endorsed by @nodutdol and led by Korea Peace Committee Philly, @k4dpenn, Anakbayan Philly, @wwp_philly, @pslphilly, and American Party of Labor.

Sarah P Corbett 'Craftivist in Residence' at Greenbelt Festival in August 2025.
Photos by Paul Chambers
Festival capacity 12,000. Kettering UK
Inviting festival-goers to slow down, reflect on how to be a loving activist and citizen, and hand-make healthy and strategic responses to injustices harming our world. Expect thoughtful provocation and threads of radical hope woven through every session across the weekend.
There were so many opportunities to find out more about – and take part in – Sarah’s gentle, quiet and creative campaigning.
A packed weekend for Sarah who wanted to do even more but there was no capacity:
1. Sold out and oversubscribed 'Stitchable Changemakers' 90min workshop for 50 participants to learn how they could use their gifts, talents, content and power to be the most effective and compassionate gentle protesters on issues they care about
2. 1. Sold out and oversubscribed 'Dream-Making ' 90min workshop for 50 participants to channel their anger and sadness at injustices they see into focusing on what utopian visions they want to see, hear, smell, touch and even taste as their dream
(e.g. save the bees changes to 'I dream of happy bees') which then helps each maker learn ways they can be part of the dream they wish to see - all based on neuroscience.
3. "Crafterthoughts' evening session where craftivists brought their own projects to Show and tell us about including the successes, challenges, learnings and answer any questions by others. Some people came with half formed ideas they wanted advice on from the group on how to deliver effectively and strategically. Some people came just to listen and learn. All made new connections and friends and you could feel the solidarity and encouragement in the room!
4. Sunday sunset last event was our climate craftivism performance: Craftivist Collective members joined members of Leena Norms’ Gumption Club wearing their upcycled 'Canary Craftivists' outfits to walk silently through the festival and sit as a flock to send photos and a handmade happy lifesized canary to the local MP and the owner of the festival grounds to encourage them to protest Greenbelt festival from the climate crisis and do what they can to act faster and bolder to create a healthier world
5. Planned pop-up appearance at The Caravan of Love for passersby to take part in a 10minute drop in craftivism workshop supporting Fashion Revolution to take home and 'shop drop'
6. Planned pop-up appearance under a free in the festival's mini forest area for passersby to take part in a 15minute drop in craftivism workshop choosing one of 5 Gentle Nudge messages on woven labels to sew into their clothes or accessories to encourage them as kind citizens and stewards of our planet
7. Overflowing tent of hundreds of people for Sarah interviewing Patrick Grant: BBC Great British Sewing Bee judge and fashion designer interviewing him about his work and book 'Less' whilst 3 craftivists sat on stage with us silently make Mini Fashion Statements during the session that Patrick then threw out into the audience encouraging them to 'shop-drop' these handwritten mini scrolls into fast fashion shop pockets or their friends pockets to encourage shoppers to ask 'who made these clothes' and be curious consumers
8. Sarah wrote and handstitched a prayer she was asked to read at the Sunday Communion on stage infront of thousands of attendees.
9. Throughout the festival Sarah was interviewed for social media teams for Greenbelt, Christian Aid and podcasts and had informal conversations with festival goers

Sensuales, sugerentes, insinuantes... así nos muestra Punkia Saenz a las chicas “pin up” del siglo XX, a semejanza de las chicas “pin up” de los años 50.
Esta exposición se completa con una realizada con los fondos del MKAC que, aprovechando la ocasión, quiso rendir un pequeño homenaje a la “chica pin up” por excelencia: Betty Boop.
