Why Now, Why Us
We are organizing at a moment of profound urgency. Across the country, we are witnessing what is possible when communities refuse to be silent: in Minneapolis, the response to the murder of George Floyd and the ongoing struggle to honor Indigenous land and sovereignty showed us what moral courage in the streets can look like.
We witness, ICE surges tearing families apart and authoritarian forces growing bolder.
We witness, the rise of white nationalism emboldening the new Jim Crow.
We witness, the targeting and erasure of transgender people.
We witness, the desecration of reproductive rights.
We witness, the growing inequality forcing large numbers of people into poverty and subjugating people into survival.
