Protecting Cross-Racial Solidarity: Countering Attacks on Each Other
Threats to democracy continue to shape attacks on us and each other. In the face of polarizing political leadership, rising ethnocentrism, voter suppression, media propaganda and increasing legal attacks on racial equity, cross-racial solidarity can feel more fragile than ever. While social justice movements have brought diverse communities together to build power, we also face internal tensions, distrust, miscommunication, and even attacks against each other.
Join us as we discuss what’s at stake and explore strategies for strengthening solidarity, bridging divides, and countering these divisive forces. Register here.

Solidarity Beyond the Elections
Now what? Democracy is not just about the elections. It is a set of institutions, ideas, and practices that center the power of the people in shaping our lives. On the other side of the elections, how do we ensure that the principles of solidarity and democracy are practiced in everyday actions and decisions? How do we continue to engage communities often forgotten, pushed out, or marginalized by our current democratic system? What tools, resources, and opportunities do we need?
Join us in unpacking the ongoing work necessary to cultivate a democratic society beyond the ballot box, and centering grassroots organizing and power building locally and nationally. Register here.
