In our convo with Darakshan Raja (S2E15), she highlights that under the pretense of national security, administrations legitimize violence. It's vital to question this—“what is legal is not always just.” #thefascismbarometer #communityorganizing #politicaleducation

Harvey's tenants form super‑majority union; Oakwood agrees to drop lease "right of first refusal" Tenants at Harvey's Mobile Home Park in Bonner launched a super‑majority union and said Oakwood Properties agreed to remove a lease clause that would have given the company first option to buy residents' homes. Organizers pressed for rollbacks of steep lot‑rent hikes, a 3% cap tied to cost‑of‑living adjustments and the option to pursue a co‑op purchase.

Residents of Harvey's Mobile Home Park have united to form a powerful tenants union, already achieving a critical victory against steep rent hikes.

Portrait of Former WORC Leadership and capacity director Sydney Ausen looking directly at the camera with her quote hovering nearby reading, "“I think without this kind of [organizer development] support, WORC would have continued to build regional campaigns with our member groups that did not have real, directly impacted people at the table being a part of developing and carrying out that campaign.”

We're honored to share our nearly half-century of experience developing and supporting organizers. Check out the key learnings of WORC and two other great organizations doing #communityorganizing.
