Every week, People’s Action shares actions you can take online and with our member groups
| Across the country, people are skilling up as we approach Labor Day. Why? Because we’re building the movement we need for the attacks we know are coming. We are taking on the corporations that back the billionaire elite. We are building strategy based in clear analysis to ensure victory for working people. And now’s your chance to join in. Our friends at May Day Strong — a coalition of over 500 labor and community organizations — are hosting virtual trainings tonight and tomorrow so that you can learn the skills you need to take on the greedy few who are hurting our communities. TONIGHT 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET: Learn how to identify campaign targets, build pressure, and hold corporations accountable for backing the billionaire agenda. Register Today TOMORROW 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET: We’re taking on fascism and racial capitalism: Naming them, tracing the corporate and political decision-makers bankrolling both, and locking in the cross-community, cross-union strategy it takes to stop them. Register Today It doesn’t just take people marching in the streets to win. It takes an education that builds a shared understanding of the movement we’re building — and how we build lasting power for the many, not the few. This is how we get there. |
| Skill Up In-Person Across the country, people are hosting “Solidarity Schools” to launch a nationwide program covering topics from political education to organizing and nonviolent resistance. Anyone can host one. May Day Strong will give you everything you need from a curriculum to promotional materials. Find everything you need to form your own Solidarity School, and sign up to host one today! |
| Saturday: Deep Canvass for Democracy Many people feel disconnected, distrustful, and uncertain. That’s why our ability to engage across differences isn’t just a skill – It’s how we build a democracy in which we all have a say and all of us can thrive together. Deep canvassing is a tool to build common cause with folks with diverse backgrounds and experiences and win the things we need in our lives. This technique uses curiosity and storytelling to give people a new perspective and energy to fight for change. Whether you want to deepen connection as a community leader, neighbor or within your own family, join People’s Action Institute this Saturday to learn how to deep canvass. |
| Are You Willing to Fight? We live in the richest country in the world but working people can’t afford groceries, rent, or health care while some billionaires pay less in taxes than a teacher. Prices rise, wages stay flat, and politicians look the other way and often take money from the same corporations that make life harder for us. The game is rigged so working people always lose, but we’re done playing by those rules. If you’re ready to stand up for your neighbors against the greedy and the cruel, sign the Willing to Fight pledge today. |
