Appreciate the opportunity to share People’s Action’s workshop at Facing Race 2024 on advancing #racialjustice and #buildingpower over the next 10 years. It’s a marathon not a sprint.

Yes, We Won | OurFuture.org by People's Action In victories from North Carolina to Washington State and Maine, we find evidence that good organizing not only works, it wins. I always find hope in how people come together in the hardest...

Yes, we won

In places where People’s Action and its affiliate groups engaged in year-round organizing to build base and relationships around the issues that matter most to people, we won.
