Two Ways to Do Collective Action With Love Resists and Our Partners

As we face a time of societal struggle, grief, and uncertainty, two things we’ve found to keep us going on the Love Resists team are being in close community with others (online video gatherings,mutual aid networks) and taking action to tip the scales of recovery towards a people-centered response (The People’s Bailout campaign).
Here are two opportunities this week to be in community and collective action with Love Resists and our partners.
1) Join our Side with Love & Love Resists In These Times Webinar on Thursday, April 2 at 6:30 ET/3:30 PT
