We are in a critical moment to make a downpayment on a feminist, Regenerative Economy and prevent future crises, starting with a Green New Deal that invests in frontline communities - indigenous peoples, API, Black, Brown, and poor white marginalized peoples. Today, we are launching the United Frontline Table, a network of sixteen organizations of frontline peoples - alliances, coalitions, community organizations and their member organizations - that has come together to advance a new feminist,
regenerative economy, based in racial justice, jobs, health, and safety for all people and the planet. A Green New Deal that leads with solutions from frontline communities is the Green New Deal we need. The United Frontline Table offers the People’s Orientation to the Regenerative Economy, an expansive toolkit offering community groups, policy advocates, and policymakers a pathway toward a feminist, Regenerative Economy. On our first week, in solidarity with the Movement for Black Lives, we are calling for Justice for Black Communities with policy priorities to divest from extraction and invest in our people by: 1. Ending mass incarceration and capital punishment2. Making reparations3. Reinstating voting rights 4.Ensuring equitable access to housing, jobs, healthcare, and education 5.Building community-governed infrastructures 6.Establishing community governance and oversight over institutions and economies |
