LIVE Webinar Tuesday, January 12 7:30pm ET: How Local Candidates Can Fight For A Solidarity Economy To Beat Pandemic Austerity: With Emily Kawano and David Cobb of the US Solidarity Economy Network

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated growing inequality, government cutbacks and corporate power. But within our own communities we've also witnessed a flourishing of people getting on with building economic alternatives and mutual aid grounded in principles of social solidarity, cooperation, egalitarianism, sustainability and economic democracy.

How can local candidates and office-holders use this historic opening to campaign for policies based on this new framework for social and economic development – one that puts people and planet before private profits and power?

Join Emily Kawano (Wellspring Collective) and David Cobb (Cooperation Humboldt) from the US Solidarity Economy Network (https://ussen.org/) for this primer on how Green Party and allied candidates can beat back austerity and stoke the fires of system change in 2021!
