In-person mobilizing meeting
Radical Women in the house of labor
Women, people of color, and queer activists are sparkplugs in today's labor movement. As part of this struggle, we are in the best position to make our voices heard and win our demands. Learn about efforts to confront patriarchy and racism in the campaign for union action waged by the National Mobilization for Reproductive Justice and the Juneteenth strike for labor and civil rights being organized by the A. Philip Randolph Institute and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union. Your help is needed!
Light snacks and drinks available for donation.

2nd and 4th Sundays, 6:30pm
Open mobilizing meetings
Plug into local reproductive justice organizing
Join other activists in a grassroots, intersectional effort to defend abortion and all reproductive justice. The U.S. Supreme Court decision on the Mississippi case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, will undoubtedly gut, if not destroy, abortion rights for most people. People of color and poor and working women will be hardest hit. Destruction of the federal right to abortion will further embolden our state’s patriarchal far right, which already targets Planned Parenthood and other clinics.
Make a difference as you work with like-minded feminists and learn new skills, such as organizing rallies and doing community outreach.

In-person Black History Month film showing
Fundi: The Story of Ella Baker
Ella Baker, a leader and pioneer of the civil rights movement, was also known as “Fundi” – Swahili for those who teach and inspire younger generations. She was a founding member of Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), which defied white supremacist violence with courageous protests and sit-ins for integration and voting rights.
She was a great mentor to young activists, with no tolerance for bureaucracy or co-optation. What can present-day activists for racial justice learn from Ella Baker? This inspiring 60-minute film provides many lessons for today’s freedom fighters. Discussion follows.
$2-3 door donation. Light snacks and drinks available for donation.

Words into Action
Radical Writers Pose Bold Strategies
for a Revived Freedom Struggle
At this juncture where the BLM upsurge has waned, what is needed to move this battle forward? These two new documents provide analysis and proposals for how to build a multiracial movement led by militant Black workers, women and LGBTQ+ folks that can fight for reparations and ultimately end police violence and systemic racism.
Featured author & speaker: Christina López - Growing up poor and Chicana in segregated Phoenix, López was inspired to activism by the Black liberation struggle. Her involvement with the two waves of Black Lives Matter and the never-ending battle against police brutality fuels her determination to find lasting solutions to discrimination and bigotry.
Featuring Sarah Scott - Black sailor, marine electrician, and reproductive justice activist.
