Dear John,
As the COVID-19 pandemic ravages our communities, the fragility of racial capitalism and its institutions are being exposed — and we are seeing once again what happens when profits are prioritized over lives — where the poor, working-class, and people of color are hit the hardest.
We are in a crisis, and the systems that are put in place to protect us have failed. But in the midst of this global crisis, there is an opportunity to build deep connections and community, to reframe how the world works so that people — not profits — are put first.
If you’re ready to rebuild the world of our radical dreams, then join us tonight for a national teach-in featuring feminist, abolitionist, scholar and activist Angela Y. Davis; author and activist Naomi Klein; and Rising Majority members including Working Families Party National Director Maurice Mitchell; Grassroots Global Justice Executive Director Cindy Wiesner; BlackBird’s Thenjiwe McHarris, and more.
RSVP to join us tonight, April 2nd at 7pm ET/4pm PT, to learn about left feminist and abolitionist perspectives on racial capitalism in this moment and how we as a movement of freedom fighters can work together in the time of the COVID-19 crisis.
