Millions of working class and marginalized people voted to throw Trump out of office, but our organizing has to continue under the next administration. While 2020 was a year of devastation, with so many people losing their jobs, their savings, and their lives, the Black Lives Matter uprisings inspired and moved millions into struggle against racism and police violence. Now we must build a mass movement to demand the changes we so desperately need, from racial, to climate, to economic justice.
The Defend Democracy Coalition is holding a rally and march on Inauguration Day 1/20 at 4 pm at Irving Park to kick off this new period of struggle. We ask that all attendees wear a mask and practice social distancing, and a car caravan is available for those with elevated risk levels for COVID-19.
Join us to make these demands loud and clear!
- Black Lives Matter
-Defund the police, invest in communities, pass the Breathe Act - Jobs for all!
-We need a Green New Deal - Real COVID Relief
-Monthly payments, no evictions, invest in public housing - Medicare for all, now!
- Protect immigrants
-Not one more deportation, reunite families - Respect Indigenous Sovereignty
-No corporate or governmental intrusion without free, prior, and informed consent - Fund Human Needs, Not Endless Warfare
