Our People's History group built a detailed people's map of the Uni of Washington.

It describes whose land we're on, who came before us, and how students can create their own sites of resistance on campus & broader community.

The people's history map also foregrounds the resistance of Black, Indigenous, Queer, and Latinx students whose organizing efforts made possible campus resources such as @UW_ECC and @Welebalt_UW

We are putting out free, new clothing like shirts and socks. Bandanas, hats and more.

We are developing overlapping and interdependent mutual aid programs that work together and support each other.

We are providing training, logistics and outreach to new programs.

By the end of the summer we will have distributed 7000+ bottles of water to our local houseless encampments.
