HOW WE ORGANIZE

We break down community involvement into three prongs: mutual aid, electoralism, and broad community organizing. In these categories, we sort things, like material services (food, mental health, education, etc programs), community engagement (talking to people, engaging in labor unions, etc), and weaponizing civic powers (voting). What informs this multi-pronged strategy is how to maximize what tools are at our disposal to best spread our fight, while improving the lives of people. In our view, this allows us to have the best reach possible, via a diverse way of interacting with our communities.

Political education is often a daunting beast, even for more experienced organizers. However, it is far easier to get into than it appears. Without education, there is a massive gap in what an organization can do. Without participation and historical analysis, which requires understanding of how the structures we oppose work, one is limited in what they can do. This balance is far and few between when it comes to organizing vehicles, especially in the modern day. We seek to reverse this trend, ultimately, at TNSU. We have a program in the work to directly address this.
