Join us early on Labor Day to honor all the workers of this country— including those working hard without benefit of citizenship— and support labor unions all across the USA! The billionaires of today—with encouragement and support of the current administration in DC— want to exploit workers, bust up unions and energetically, sometimes illegally or violently, discourage new unions from forming. Labor Unions brought us the 40-hour work week overtime pay for starters. More important, they’ve demonstrated the power we have when we work together to pressure those in control. Let’s keep that spirit alive and make it work for us all! Bring a non perishable food item to help out a neighbor, and enjoy how uplifting it feels to stand shoulder to shoulder with like minded friends and neighbors. We are a peaceful, inclusive coalition standing for justice, dignity, and equality for all. United across identities and experiences, we fight against racial injustice, economic inequality, xenophobia, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, sexism, and the systemic neglect of veterans and marginalized communities. Our mission is to create a world where every person—regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, ability, immigration status, or background—is treated with respect, compassion, and fairness. We reject hate in all its forms and stand firmly against racism, fascism, misogyny, and authoritarianism. Through nonviolent protest, community education, and unwavering solidarity, we work to empower people, defend democracy, and build a future rooted in kindness, courage, and shared humanity. We believe in the inherent value of every life. We believe in love over fear. And we believe that change begins with all of us—together. WE RISE UP in collaboration with Torch Of Texas will be collecting non-parishable food items to benefit the local food pantry ABUNDANT HARVEST. Additional link: https://www.mobilize.us/weriseup/
