 Power Point Presentation
New UPDATED January 2016 Power point presentation consisting of 29 slides.                                                                      
Presentation Talking Points
NEW UPDATED July 2014 Highlighted facts directly related to each slide in the power point presentation to generate relevant discussions. 

In 2006, WRAP published a Without Housing report that clearly showed the world why America’s “approach” to ending homelessness has been overwhelmingly ineffective. In 2010, we updated the report, now available in both English and Spanish.

In the beginning of 2012 WRAP created a Organizers’ Toolkit, we offer it here to any community based organizing effort, be it Rural or Urban. We offer it in order to preserve and build on what we already know to be fact and we will add to it as we move forward in the work we are doing.

Organizer Toolkit

The Toolkit is focused broadly enough on the federal government so that any group in the country can use it to do inclusive social-justice community organizing. It is designed as a tool with which we can educate ourselves as we continue the struggle for our right to exist in dignity.

How to Download:

We set this up so you can download each section separately (click on each section title) or below you can download the whole toolkit.

Imperialism always rehearses the same lie: that vi Imperialism always rehearses the same lie: that violence is “necessary,” theft is “security,” and its vision has more value than a people’s sovereignty. From Nigeria to Iran to Venezuela, the script never changes—only the names do.

People-Powered Change Wins They say “the revolutio People-Powered Change Wins
They say “the revolution will not be funded.” And it’s true. Those in power currently rely on vast amounts of money to orchestrate their influence. We are organizing more and more PEOPLE into this movement to bring down systemic oppression and build a more just society. We are inherently PEOPLE-POWERED.

Fascism is not “on its way”; it is here. And it is Fascism is not “on its way”; it is here. And it is no secret that authoritarians develop their tools of oppression on the most vulnerable among us – only to unleash them later against anyone who stands in their way.
