friend, Last week we asked folks to share why they want to UnKoch Everything and wow, did y’all deliver! We heard from grassroots organizers across the country, all eager to share why they’re fiercely fighting against the Koch Network and their impact on our democracy. |

“Freedom must be restored and returned to the people. No one group of people should be able to create and outline society for everyone.” -- Stephanie, Wisconsin “Just by their insidious, behind the scenes maneuvering and financing of backward thinking, pro business and anti education work on legislation, they are taking their authoritarian take over of government with few of us being aware. We need to band together to work to undermine and destroy their plans.” -- Caroline, Arizona “Education should be free. Knowledge should comprise a commons. And what we teach should be unfettered from capitalism. #UnBlackRockPitzer #UnKochOurCampus” -- Daniel, California “The Koch world is a world of extreme patriarchal control and domination. I have zero interest in that kind of world. The one I want instead is collaborative, fair, creative, sustainable, healthy and respectful. I will work to see that happen and join others in common cause.” -- Nancy, Oregon |

UnKoch My Campus is a project dedicated to disrupting corporate influence on campuses nationwide by equipping campus activists with education, skills, and ecosystems of solidarity. The Koch network is leveraging its donations to colleges and universities to bolster its corporate agenda to halt action on climate change, put hundreds of thousands of people in prison, deny millions of people healthcare, and strip rights and wages from workers globally. We're building a mass movement of young people who are dedicated to disrupting this harm. |
