Courage to Resist

"Supporting the troops who refuse to fight."Courage to Resist is motivated by a "people power" strategy that we believe can weaken the pillars that maintain war and occupation in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere. By supporting GI resistance, counter-recruitment, and draft resistance, we hope to diminish the number of troops available for unjust war and occupation.

Critical Resistance

Critical Resistance seeks to build an international movement to end the Prison Industrial Complex by challenging the belief that caging and controlling people makes us safe. We believe that basic necessities such as food, shelter, and freedom are what really make our communities secure. As such, our work is part of global struggles against inequality and powerlessness. The success of the movement requires that it reflect communities most affected by the PIC. Because we seek to abolish the PIC, we cannot support any work that extends its life or scope.Critical Resistance’s vision is the creation of genuinely healthy, stable communities that respond to harm without relying on imprisonment and punishment. We call our vision abolition, drawing, in part from the legacy of the abolition of slavery in the 1800′s. As PIC abolitionists we understand that the prison industrial complex is not a broken system to be fixed. The system, rather, works precisely as it is designed to—to contain, control, and kill those people representing the greatest threats to state power. Our goal is not to improve the system even further, but to shrink the system into non-existence. We work to build healthy, self-determined communities and promote alternatives to the current system.Critical Resistance (CR) is building a member-led and member-run grassroots movement to challenge the use of punishment to “cure” complicated social problems. We know that more policing and imprisonment will not make us safer. Instead, we know that things like food, housing, and freedom are what create healthy, stable neighborhoods and communities. We work to prevent people from being arrested or locked up in prison. In all our work, we organize to build power and to stop the devastation that the reliance on imprisonment and policing has brought to ourselves, our families, and our communities.

C-U Immigration Forum

The Champaign-Urbana Immigration Forum is a group of immigrants, students, clergy, service providers, labor union representatives, residents and community organizations concerned about the progress and plight of immigrants in the Champaign County community. What Are Our Concerns: Our nation has a proud and long tradition of welcoming immigrants from around the world as symbolized by the Statute of Liberty. But too often, bigotry and discrimination against new immigrants has been a common response. The C-U Immigration Forum rejects such attitudes and works to celebrate the diversity and contributions of all immigrants in our community.Around 11 million undocumented immigrants are living and working within U.S. borders without a realistic path to citizenship. Our government’s focus on enforcement-only policies has not substantially reduced that number, but has led to the tearing apart of families, human rights abuses, racial profiling, and even death.A related issue is that 65,000 undocumented students graduate every year from high school without “papers.” These are young people born outside of the United States who were educated in American schools, hold American values, know only the U.S. as home and who, upon high school graduation, find the door to their future slammed shut. Access to post high-school education is for them difficult if not impossible. This is a waste to all concerned – students, their families, the community at large. Recent policy changes under DACA are a start but the full incorporation of these young people is a neccessity.

Decarcerate PA

Decarcerate PA is a coalition of organizations and individuals seeking an end to mass incarceration and the harms it brings our communities. Decarcerate PA seeks mechanisms to build whole, healthy communities and believes that imprisonment exacerbates the problems we face. We therefore demand an immediate and lasting moratorium on all new prisons: no new prisons, no new county or city jails, no prison expansions, no new beds in county jails, no immigrant detention facilities, no private prisons. We also demand changes in policing, sentencing and legislation to reduce the prison population. We believe that public money should instead be spent on quality public schools, jobs and job training, community-based reentry services, health care and food access, drug and alcohol treatment programs, stable housing, restorative forms of justice and non-punitive programs that address the root cause of violence in our communities. Such steps are necessary to secure socially responsible, personally secure, and economically viable communities in our state.

We use media-organizing to creatively transform the oppression faced by Detroit’s LGBTQ youth of color, while building community.The mission of Detroit REPRESENT! is to inspire and support media organizing in Detroit lead by LGBTQ youth of color, in order to resist erasure, transform oppression, and create authentic portrayals of our communities, our lives, and our selves. Detroit REPRESENT! is a media-based community project, created and lead by LGBTQ youth of color from across Detroit. We began meeting in 2011, when a group of LGBTQ youth of color from all corners of the city started gathering at a nearby church, every week, to teach each other photography, and discuss the oppression within mainstream media. Since that time, our collective has evolved. Some of our first members have gone on to become adult activists, some of us have pursued other dreams and goals, and some of us have taken on greater levels of leadership within the collective.
