Cannon River Organized Workers

Organized workers are critical in building a new social system. Workers run the economy, and must be organized in order to transition it to provide for social need instead of private profit. We support efforts to organize local workplaces as well as national worker organizing campaigns focused on strategic industries. 

Northfield Against
​Line 3

We are fighting a tar sands oil pipeline in solidarity with Anishinaabe Indigenous leaders in northern Minnesota. We are building a mass movement that uses non-violent direct action to delay the construction and create a political crisis. 

Young People’s Action Coalition

We are working to organize and mobilize high school students in the Twin Cities around social and environmental issues. In Minneapolis, YPAC students are running a campaign to get cops out of schools and replace them with restorative justice procedures.  ​​​

Worker Cooperatives

We build cooperatives in order to have existing, successful democratic alternatives to point at as examples in comparison to the decaying system. Our main focus is building worker owned cooperatives and housing cooperatives. Many of our collective members live in a triplex house run as a housing cooperative. Four members run a curbside compost collection worker cooperative aimed at serving the entire city. We also run a permaculture, free range chicken farm on a 15 acre piece of land that will also be the site of future housing for cadre and a movement popular education school. ​
