Our liberation is undeniably tethered to land. Land is at the heart of our struggles and as we fight for ourselves we fight to liberate the land in solidarity with Indigenous movements.

Today is Thangs-Taken. Why do we call it that at VietLead? Each year, our youth and staff gather to reflect on our inheritance of white supremacist settler colonialism, and we encourage our non-Indigenous community members to do the same today.

We’re working alongside various organizations and the city of Philadelphia to greet a second bus of asylum seekers from Texas. Help us make sure every person who arrives tomorrow knows that Philadelphia is a welcoming city!

Đùm bọc means to take care and protect with love, making sure no one is left behind. Our COVID-19 work’s success stems from foundational trust and relationships cultivated over the last 7 years of community work grounded in love and care.
