Title: Left's Web of Trust Post by: gredinger on April 30, 2020, 09:37:27 AM Hi everyone, I've lost my election. ::)
Our leader has as well, however he left us a gift. A default trust list. The entire list is here; https://berniesanders.com/movement-continues/ Quote The Center for Popular Democracy (Open Secrets) works to create equity, opportunity and a dynamic democracy in partnership with high-impact base-building organizations, organizing alliances, and progressive unions. People’s action is a national network of state & local grassroots power-building organizations united in fighting for justice. We are an organization that centers everyday people in all that we do, and are consistently on the cutting edge of the fight for justice. Common Defense is a national, grassroots organization of progressive veterans organizing for an end to the Forever Wars, and real change like Medicare For All, implementing a Green New Deal, and winning a future where “liberty and justice” truly is for ALL. We need progressive veterans and supporters who believe in our mission to join us and participate in our growing community with trainings, membership calls, and actions every week. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is the largest socialist organization in the United States. DSA’s members are building progressive movements for social change while establishing an openly democratic socialist presence in American communities and politics. Today, the Dream Defenders is a multiracial group of young people who are organizing to build power in our communities to advance a new vision we have for the state. Our agenda is called the Freedom Papers. Through it, we are advancing our vision of safety and security – away from prisons, deportation, and war – and towards healthcare, housing, jobs and movement for all. Emgage Action is an issue advocacy organization for the American Muslim community. We seek to mobilize American Muslims to advocate for legislation and policies that define what we stand for. We advocate for candidates and issues that advance values based positions on Civil Liberties, Criminal Justice Reform, Income Inequality, Healthcare, Immigration Reform, National Security and Climate Change. Our Revolution is organizing a political revolution to challenge the power of the plutocrats and prioritize the needs of people and our planet. With your support, we are building a national grassroots movement of local groups powerful enough to win progressive issue fights, elect progressive champions, transform the Democratic Party, and get big money out of politics. Mijente is a digital and grassroots organization made up of Latinx and Chicanx people who are organizing for economic, racial, climate and gender justice. Sunrise is a movement to stop climate change and create millions of good jobs through a Green New Deal. We are building an army of young people to make climate change an urgent priority across America, end the corrupting influence of fossil fuel executives on our politics, and elect leaders who stand up for the health and wellbeing of all people.

So far, I trust his default trust list. --- Open secrets is an awesome organization. They make the world a better place. I've been a member of the DSA for a couple years now. I agree with my local organization's demands: https://nwohiodsa.org/covid-19-demands/ I just finished a crash course with the sunrise movement. AOC was my inspiration for running in the 2020 race. Our Revolution is a fun one. I've been an outsider to the organization for a pretty long time and finally joined. My state's and local organization is great! I also enjoy the national calls!

Politics is to an extent cyclic. The current system of ever-increasing inequality edges closer to breaking point, with the current pandemic highlighting its weaknesses. I believe that the left will triumph soon. |
