Halt your Company's Complicity in the Gaza Genocide
Israel has killed tens of thousands of people in Gaza — with many thousands more lost under the rubble that once was homes, neighborhoods, and communities. More than 40% of those killed are children. Israel's genocidal campaign is enabled by the financial, military, diplomatic, and cultural support it gets from companies around the world. As workers, we can force our employers to halt their complicity in this genocide. The time to act for Palestine is now.
The Watermelon Index is a tool for resistance against corporate complicity in the occupation of Palestine and genocide in Gaza. It is designed to facilitate worker-led campaigns against companies that are complicit in Israel's crimes.
Many people are unaware of their employer's links to Israel's crimes, or do not know how to change them. The purpose of the Watermelon Index is to enable people to investigate their workplace, organize for a free Palestine, and learn from other campaigns. Anyone can submit information about their workplace or campaigns.
Let the Green-Rainbow Party Communications group know when you decide to take action against a Massachusetts-located company so we can support you.

The Green Party US Stands for a One-State Solution in Israel-Palestine
The Palestinian-Israeli Conflict
Our Green values oblige us to stand against oppression, against settler colonialism, and against the International crime of apartheid.
- We recognize that Jewish insecurity and fear of non-Jews is understandable in light of the history of horrific oppression and extermination of Jews in Europe. However, we oppose as both discriminatory and ultimately self-defeating the position that Jews would be fundamentally threatened by the implementation of full rights for Palestinians. We also reject the Zionist concept of an exclusive Jewish homeland at the expense of the indigenous Palestinian population.
- As U.S. Greens, we refuse to impose our views on the people of the region. Still, we would turn the U.S. government towards a new policy, one that recognizes the equality, the inherent humanity, and the equal civil and human rights of Jews, Muslims, Christians, and all who live in the region.
- We recognize that the prevailing Palestinian view is that the two-state solution is neither democratic nor viable in the face of international law, material conditions, and "facts on the ground" that now exist in historic Palestine. We recognize that a growing number of Palestinians now support a one-state solution that guarantees equal rights for all its citizens. Given these realities, the U.S. Greens recognize and reaffirm the right of self-determination for both Palestinians and Israelis, and their right to live in a single undivided secular and democratic state where all residents have full and equal rights, and freedoms

RIP Mel King, a co-founder of the Green-Rainbow Party, died on March 28, 2023, at the age of 94. He was a respected and renowned politician in the Boston area for over 70 years.
In 2002, Mel King and members of the Massachusetts branch of the Rainbow Coalition merged with the Green Party of Massachusetts to form the Green-Rainbow Party. "A giant tree has fallen in the forest of humanity," said David Barkley, who continues Mel King's community breakfasts. The current members of the GRP party remain grateful for the commitment and grace that Mel King brought to civil rights and diversity throughout his life.

Doomsday Clock Reset to 90 Seconds to Midnight on Jan 24th!
Our world inched 10 seconds closer to total annihilation in the past year according to the Science and Security Board of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists which set the Doomsday Clock at 90 seconds to midnight. Our leading peace activist, Jill Stein, offers the following perspective:"Russia appears to be countering US nuclear threats on its borders by moving Russian missiles towards our borders.
Specifically, the Russian warship, Admiral Gorshkov, is heading towards the US coast, in apparent response to NATO's expansion - including nuclear-capable missiles - right up to Russia's borders. This follows the US moves to:
