Hip Hop Occupies - Hip Hop Occupies currently operates as both an Occupy Seattle working group, and as an autonomous body with a local to global framework. Because Phase I of our Goals and Action Plan includes growing our network beyond Seattle, part of Phase II will include creating a forum and process to expand democratic decision-making to comrades outside our region. As we grow, we recognize that the need for communication between occupations throughout the country is essential to success, and Hip Hop Occupies seeks to be model for this type of collaboration, rooted in arts, culture, and authentic community
Critical Resistance - Critical Resistance seeks to build an international movement to end the Prison Industrial Complex by challenging the belief that caging and controlling people makes us safe. We believe that basic necessities such as food, shelter, and freedom are what really make our communities secure. As such, our work is part of global struggles against inequality and powerlessness. The success of the movement requires that it reflect communities most affected by the PIC. Because we seek to abolish the PIC, we cannot support any work that extends its life or scope.
