Durham for Organizing Action works toward social justice by defending democracy and fighting racism, sexism, economic injustice, and all forms of oppression.
Justice isn't due on Election Day alone. In 2020, we deployed hundreds of “canvass monitors” across #NC to observe the canvass process and ensure that every eligible vote counted.
Be a part of that in 2022 and attend our training tomorrow night! RSVP @ https://t.co/YzwgpMOiwa

@JeffDSachs tells @RevDrBarber we’ve been “taken over” by callous millionaires like @Sen_JoeManchin who decide we can’t afford vision/dental for the elderly as our lifespan decreases and “WE LET POOR PEOPLE DIE” 😳#PassThePeoplesBudget 🇺🇸
According to @LauraLeslieWRAL's reporting, the new Republican legislative maps will almost certainly eliminate 33% of AA senators, 20% of AA representatives and the seats of the only Latino and Native American representatives. Diverse representation was drawn out of the #ncga.

WV broke w/the Confederacy in 1863. They've got a senator now who’s picking up the mantle of the Confederacy. Not only is Manchin letting "states' rights" trump voting rts, living wages & For The People Act, he’s treating corp's like ppl & ppl like things. https://t.co/evyGUKPp8v
Join the #PoorPeoplesCampaign & call your Senators today to demand:
✅ End the filibuster NOW
✅ Pass ALL provisions of the For the People Act

This is a serious moment in our nation. If we've got to sit in senators' offices, if we need to sit in the streets—we're not going to do an insurrection. We're going to do a resurrection and active mobilization for voting rights, living wages, healthcare, infrastructure, etc.
