Stop Policing the Globe and Put an End to Endless Wars
The Jewish Museum Of Florida FIU, Presents Its Fall Lineup
By John W. Whitehead & Nisha Whitehead
“It’s time that we stop policing the globe, stop occupying other countries and stop waging, endless wars.” John W. Whitehead. It’s time to bring all of our troops home. Bring them home from Somalia, Iraq and Syria. Bring them home from Germany, South Korea and Japan. Bring them home from Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Oman. Bring them home from Niger, Chad and Mali. Bring them home from Turkey, The Philippines and Northern Australia. It’s not enough to just pull American troops out of Afghanistan, America’s longest, bloodiest and most expensive war, to date. It’s time that we stop policing the globe, stop occupying other countries and stop waging endless wars. That’s not what’s going to happen, of course! The U.S. Military, reportedly has more than 1.3 Million men and women on active duty, with more than 200,000 of them, stationed overseas, in nearly every country, in the world. Those numbers are significantly higher, in keeping with The Pentagon’s likely policy of not fully disclosing where and how many troops are deployed, for Troops Home, Page 6A
Hello Gorgeous, is an eclectic exhibition of costumes, photos, videos, record album covers and other objects, celebrating the life of Barbara Streisand.
The Shoulda Got The Shot PSA Campaign, doesn’t lecture its audience. It isn’t a blatant endorsement by politicians and scientists and it doesn’t tell people what to think.
Shoulda Got The Shot? Missing The Mark With Vaccine Holdouts Frank Kilpatrick, like so many others, is alarmed that some 30 percent of the U.S. population haven’t received a COVID-19 Vaccine. So, he and his team of concerned citizens, have come together to create a Public Service Announcement (PSA) Campaign, aimed at moving the needle, (literally,) on these numbers. The thinking behind their project? If what we’re doing isn’t working, it’s time to shift gears. “Clearly, Vaccine holdouts aren’t receptive to the current top-down ‘science and shame’ approaches, aimed at persuading them to get the jab,” says Kilpatrick, the Campaign’s Executive Producer, a Songwriter
and The Director Of The NonProfit Organization, Ribbons For Research. “So, we’ve come up with a more heartfelt, emotional, non-preachy, politically neutral approach, we believe will resonate and move these groups to take action.” Kilpatrick’s collaborators on the Project include: Director Eric Mittleman, Producer Linda Kilpatrick and Associate Producer, Rayko Takahashi. The Shoulda Got The Shot Campaign, features portrayals and testimonials from real people, who have been seriously ill or lost a loved one due to COVID-19. Kilpatrick is hoping that media outlets across the
U.S. will lend their support by placing these PSA’s into rotation, in their local markets. So far, the following TV spots have been completed: 30-second “Ripped From the Headlines” Shoulda Got the Shot: Go to: vimeo.com/592352092/ca9df9a15f 60-second “Real People” Shoulda Got the Shot: Go to: vimeo.com/592352211/695dc61f29 30-second “Real People” Shoulda Got the Shot: Go to: vimeo.com/592352114/b168c4eb81 SPANISH 30-second “Real People” Shoulda Got the Shot: Go to: vimeo.com/592352170/fb4eae5e3f Got The Shot?, Page 4A
