Building Unity is a multi-group project working to build a stronger and more united movement for Peace, Justice, Sustainability, and Democracy.
Specifically, we call for:
A strong democracy (restoring voting rights, securing fair voting districts, and eliminating the influences of “big money” in electoral politics)
BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) justice, sovereignty, and solidarity (economic justice, the honoring of treaties, increased funding to end the epidemics of poverty, violence, and death)
Equal protections and opportunities under the law for all people - ending racial, gender, and all forms of discrimination
Environmental action that appropriately addresses the climate emergency.
Restored reproductive rights, including body autonomy.
Criminal legal reform that is grounded in compassion, rehabilitation, healing, and respect for all people
Economic justice and the meeting of human needs for all (healthcare, housing, education, nutrition, living wages, safe environments, the right to collectively bargain, etc.)
Legalization of marijuana and the immediate release of all persons who are incarcerated solely for marijuana use or possession
Stop funding the Israeli war-machine and other warmakers. Use our tax dollars to promote diplomacy, peace, and security. Use funds to meet our essential needs at home and around the world.
