We had us a celebration!!

July 29, 2016 by Jonathan Leave a Comment

Hey everybody!!

We said we were having a celebration of our communities strength and DAMN did we ever…

Powerful murals, kick ass music and a whole bunch of social justice warriors from California, Colorado and Oregon….and of course the Tenderloin:), all hanging out together soaking in our collective beauty and energizing ourselves from our collective strength!!!

 You can’t have culture without art, you can’t have a revolution without dancing and sure as hell we ain’t going to get our demands met without a fight……every time we get to connect all three is a party and as good as we fight we celebrate/party/love each other even better!!

As more people continue to get connected with the As more people continue to get connected with the Western Regional Advocacy Project (WRAP), we wanted to introduce ourselves to all of you. Check out this post to understand who we are! 

Founded in 2005, WRAP is an organization that unites local community organizing groups with the common aim of fighting against the root causes of poverty & homelessness. 

WRAP’s analysis of neoliberal policies expose the prioritization of profit and privatization of affordable housing over solving homelessness. This has resulted in the increase of homelessness & poverty across the country. Homelessness is an issue entrenched in the very fabric of federal cuts to affordable housing, ever changing policies and legislation. 

WRAP members are spread across 5 states: California, Colorado, Oregon, Montana, & Washington. Our members are local groups from both city and rural contexts. 
To keep WRAP accountable, our members drive our priorities by ensuring they’re grounded in the community. 

Our strategies have the power of collective mobilization & are intended to be utilized locally & nationally. We emphasize the importance of community organizing so all of our resources can be used by the public in their work! 

As an organization that is celebrating our 21st year as of March 2026, we are grateful for all the support and collaboration over the years! We know that the only way we win this fight is together so get connected with WRAP today & let’s continue to fight for our unhoused and poor neighbors!

Repression Breeds Resistance: Honoring Community O Repression Breeds Resistance: Honoring Community Organizing

We must celebrate and honor that people remain steadfast in their commitment to organize as the US government has continued its mission of fascist dictatorial rule.
The tactics implemented by today’s American fascist dictatorship have long mirrored similar tyrannical tactics throughout history: “repression breeds resistance” is a relevant phrase now more than ever. 

Organizers across the country have demonstrated that this resistance can take many forms and that’s our strength and our beauty as we build community locally and across the country. 

Immigrants, queer & trans people, unhoused people, disabled people, people of color are the primary targets for oppression; however, under a fascist dictatorship, everyone becomes a target so long as you are advocating for basic human rights and not advancing the interests of the ruling class. Militarized police and immigration enforcement systems are created to protect fascists and their cronies from the pain and suffering they’re responsible for as they exploit the people’s wealth and resources. To protect the wealthy and politically elite, advancements must be made technologically and financially. Surveillance of pro-people movements have become widespread across the nation. Private security and local law enforcement agencies expanded, and the budget for the immigration and customs enforcement agency (ICE) spiked thanks to Trump’s Big Fascist Bill which rose from roughly $10 billion to a whopping $80 billion. When a country operates as a private enterprise for the exclusive profit of the ruling class, a core function of governance becomes violence, fear and oppression.  Read More: https://conta.cc/4auPudt
