A convening to exchange, unite, and strategize in defense of our lives.  

The US state has launched a full-scale attack on our right to live in health and dignity. If we stand together, our power is much greater than theirs! Join us for a convening of organizers, activists, and people in struggle to discuss, strategize, and plan for the next stage of our fight. Full itinerary to come.
