St. Louis Justice and Peace Shares (JPS) is a collaboration of six local groups with different missions, all committed to nonviolent social change and justice for the poor. Recognizing that competition for funds drains both staff and donors, in 2004 these organizations decided to collaborate on fundraising, education, and training.

Caterpillar: "Take the Responsibility, Do the Right Thing!"

"On June, 9th we traveled to Chicago to participate in an action with several groups to protest Caterpillar's sales of militarized bulldozers to Israel that are used to destroy Palestinian life. We traveled to participate in this campaign because we strongly believe that divestment is the strongest tool that we have to changing US participation in the Israeli governments policy of Apartheid towards the people of Palestine. Caterpillar and its equipment are responsible for the loss of life, loss of homes, loss of agriculture and infrastructure as well as continuing to build and support an apartheid structure. Our goal today is to tell Caterpillar: "Take Responsibility and Do the Right Thing."' -Colleen Kelly, Sandra Tamari and Mark Chmiel
