Join the September 2020 Rebellion
Climate breakdown, COVID-19, racial injustice – all are symptoms of a toxic system that is driving us to extinction. At the root of these threats to life are centuries of white supremacy, patriarchy, and colonialism—a pattern of treating the earth as a commodity and Black and brown lives as disposable.
It would be easy to sit back and despair because government has failed us. Politicians ignored the warnings about COVID-19 as they have denied the facts of the climate crisis. State-sanctioned violence against people of color continues while politicians fuel racism to gain votes. And powerful elites burn the planet for profit.
But everywhere you look, a collective rage is growing. People are pouring into the streets, taking back community control. Mass unemployment, uncertainty about schools reopening, a broken healthcare system, police violence - enough is enough. We have an opportunity NOW as we emerge from the pandemic to change the system. And we can do so together.
“Business-as-usual” is fighting to regain its hold, but we won’t let that happen. We. Will. Rebel. For life. For justice. For a future.
