Debt 101: Building Debtor Power
Concentrated wealth, stagnant wages, and austerity policies have forced most of us to take on enormous debts to cover the costs of everything from healthcare to housing, education to transportation.
During this Debt 101 event, we’ll look at how the growing crisis of personal debt is related to broader patterns in our society – and how we can turn our individual financial burdens into collective power in the fight for social and economic transformation.
This is a 100 Days to Build Debtor Power event. Over the first 100 days of the new presidential administration, we’re embarking – together – on an intensive campaign of organizing trainings, political education, and debtors assemblies to build our solidarity AND prepare us with the skills we’ll need in the months & years ahead.
