Organizing Meeting

No Kings, no patriarchs— are we making progress?

We’ve marched, protested, and petitioned. Now what can we do to stop U.S. wars and the horrific rollback on reproductive justice, trans freedom, immigrant rights, and so much more? Let’s talk strategies that can reverse the right-wing tide and confront the fascist threat. Capitalism is a disaster for humans and the planet. What lies beyond it? 

Also on the agenda: In honor of Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month, learn about trailblazing Asian American lesbian poet, activist and educator Merle Woo. Also get informed about the debates over public surveillance in the city. Get involved — bring your ideas and energy!

Light snacks and drinks available for donation starting at 6:30pm.

The Legacy of Black Workers’ Struggle to End the War on the Poor

The heroic role of Black workers, especially women, in anti-poverty and union organizing is proof of the deep connection between the fight against racism and sexism and the battle royale for economic justice. Workers who come together with this understanding can defeat Trump and win against his cruel cuts to federal workers and social services.
