Political Education from TakeAction
Dear John,
Here in Minnesota, we look out for our neighbors. From saving small farms with penny auctions during the Great Depression to the #VoteNo campaign in 2012, when we blocked a ban on gay marriage, we know this to be true: Minnesotans come together during moments of crisis.
We've done it before. And during this global pandemic, we know we can do it again - if we build solidarity and fight for our communities.
Here at TakeAction, we are meeting this moment by rolling out a series of political education resources. We’re building our knowledge and language so we can learn, grow, and demand change together - even when we're apart. Check out our new show on IGTV, and watch for new blogs on our website.

Political education helps us put language to what we feel in our bodies and in our minds when we experience gender oppression, racism, classism and corporate power. It allows us to build a common language to identify the things that need to change in our communities.
We’re calling our political education program Igniting Change. Each week, we will have content for you to learn and share with others. And every two weeks, we’re hosting an in-depth webinar that you’re invited to join.

We’ve got a lot planned, and we’re excited to share it with you. You’re invited on this journey with us. Join us on Zoom to envision another world together. Join us on Instagram TV to get clear on where we’re at. Share articles and videos and stories, so that we may all begin to imagine and build.
See you soon,
Britton Mikkelsen and Magdalena Kaluza
