If you haven’t yet signed up for our special Zoom meeting taking place on Tuesday, October 27 at 8 p.m. Eastern, you can do so now by clicking here.
Plans are underway to bring together speakers from the labor movement and youth organizations to talk about how they are preparing to mobilize in the event the President loses and refuses to honor the results.
Here’s what we’re looking forward to:
- Speakers who will share what their actions are amid a potential unconstitutional takeover of government power by the current administration in the event it is required to concede.
- Breakout sessions based on geography–what plans are in the works regionally, in specific states with hotly contested races or in cities where there have been a high number of violent acts against peaceful Black Lives Matter protestors.
- Participation by you, your colleagues or fellow students on how you can get involved with efforts in the works or join your efforts with those of other groups.
