Organization Description

We understand our system of economic and political domination – capitalism – often promotes division along lines of class, color, gender, religion, ability, sexual orientations, and age.  Its development has been and continues to be characterized by imperialism, militarism, and war; environmental destruction; the exploitation of workers; gross inequality; multiple layers of oppression against those designated as “other;” and the suppression of democracy. 

Collectively we seek to build more just, healthy relationships between people of all backgrounds and to establish a more sustainable, dynamic balance between humans and the Earth.  We work on healing social and environmental fractures and disconnections at the local level and lend both moral and material support to other organizations working for progressive social change at the state, national, and international levels.
