Are you feeling stuck & overwhelmed thinking about what will happen on election day and beyond? Maybe you've been organizing in your communities & on the streets for years and wondering how your efforts will be affected by a different president. Or maybe you're feeling motivated to participate in local action for the first time, or first time in a long time, because of how much is at stake this year No matter who is elected, we will continue organizing to protect our human rights here and abroad-- including demanding an end to the occupation in Palestine and an end to all genocides. But/and, the outcomes of this election will affect us all and our organizing work deeply, due to the sheer gravity of the issues at stake around war, work, housing, migration, reproductive & trans rights, and democracy. Inspired by Octavia Butler's call to "shape change," we will ask: How can we move collectively, strategically, and proactively through this time? We'll be together in whatever range of emotions the moment stirs. We'll offer resources from movement elders & partners (from Grassroots Global Justice, and more!) on scenario planning, mutual aid infrastructure, and organizing strategy. And we'll talk about how it all applies to our local conditions and campaigns. Register at bit.ly/wheredowego207 (fb)
