IIRON North

The IIRON Education Fund, NFP is a charitable organization devoted to training people to create public lives, to understand, build and exercise power through collective action and to address the issues facing our families and communities. Every day, decisions are made by elected officials, government bodies and corporations that affect the lives of ordinary people. Without a clear understanding of these decisions, the power behind them, and an ability to mobilize people power, ordinary people have no chance to have their voices heard. IIRON Education Fund provides the tools and the collective power to give ordinary people a voice. The IIRON Education Fund, NFP, occasionally and within the limits permitted to 501c3 organizations, partners with other organization to educate people about public policies that impact their lives. IIRON Education Fund, NFP does not participate in partisan electoral or political activities.

INCITE! Women and Trans People of Color against Violence

INCITE! Women, Gender Non-Conforming, and Trans people of Color* Against Violence is a national activist organization of radical feminists of color advancing a movement to end violence against women of color and our communities through direct action, critical dialogue and grassroots organizing.INCITE! is made up of grassroots chapters and affiliates across the U.S. working on particular political projects such as police violence, reproductive justice, and media justice; a national collective that works to leverage this grassroots organizing on a national and transnational platform; an advisory collective that helps increase the capacity of national organizing; and thousands of members and supporters.INCITE! works with groups of women of color* and our communities to develop political projects that address the multiple forms of violence women of color experience in our lives, on our bodies, and in our communities.We identify "violence against women of color" as a combination of "violence directed at communities," such as police violence, war, and colonialism, and "violence within communities," such as sexual and domestic violence.Chapters and affiliates engage in strategies and projects that address both personal and state violence, acknowledging the ways that oppressions intersect in the lives of women of color. Some of those projects include producing a women of color radio show, challenging the non-profitization of antiviolence and other social justice movements, organizing rallies on street harassment, training women of color on self-defense, organizing mothers on welfare, building and running a grassroots clinic, supporting communities to engage in community accountability strategies, and much more.

Indian People's Action is being very deliberate through its training and listening sessions to cross the boundaries of race and class among those attending sessions. Thus from early on in the organizing process everyone - from the faith community, to labor, to the community - is hearing about the unique concerns and issues of communities of color and economically distressed people, particularly Native American concerns (the largest community of color in Montana). The Listening Session approach provides everyone with a relational context to learn about the issues.

Justice For All

Justice For All (JFA)'s mission is to empower the community with a program that is vital to the culture and society by providing them with a phone app to report police encounters.It’s been 3 years since the Baltimore police arrested and caused the death of Freddie Carlos Gray, Jr. A lot of changes were mandated by the Dept. of Justice as a result of that death and the uprising that followed. But how much has the behavior of the Baltimore police department changed, if at all? We are seeing complaints against the police on the increase in cities across the country and feel the same may be happening in Baltimore. From January 2013 to December 2017, 28 people have been killed by Baltimore police, 24 of them Black; 27% of police killings in the 100 largest cities. We need to know what is really happening on the streets in our communities, and we feel one way to do that is to get feedback from the members of the community themselves. A phone app has been developed for that purpose and is a tool people can use to document their encounters with police, anonymously and in real time. We will teach people in the community how to use the app and then will meet with the community regularly to review the information collected. With this information, the community will be better able to hold the city and police accountable for their policies and actions.
