❤️🔥White folks—we’ve gotta get into fighting formation! ❤️🔥
Trump swept the GOP primaries and is now the de facto nominee for president. A MAGA victory over the presidency and Congress in '24 would be dangerous for all of us and threaten the existence of democracy in the U.S. As white people who care about justice, we are clear that undermining white support for Trump is critical work.
Alongside Trump’s victory last night, hundreds of thousands of Dems voted “uncommitted” or abstained from a Biden vote in protest of his policy on Gaza. Since Oct. 7, over 30,000 Palestinians—one-third being children—have been killed by the Israeli government. Nearly 2 million have been displaced from their homes, millions more starving and lacking access to clean water or basic healthcare. This is morally unconscionable, and it isn’t good for any of us. Our government pours billions into war and then defunds schools, healthcare, and housing.
Changing the Dem's course on Gaza is part of what it will take to defeat Trump, and SURJ is proud to be working on both fronts. We've begun reaching 12 million white voters in strategic swing states to block Trump. And alongside our partners, thousands of SURJ members continue to demand an immediate and permanent ceasefire.
To pull off our plans, we must grow. Join SURJ communities around the country tomorrow for a Grow the Movement Livestream as we dive into our plan for how we can—and must—take accountability for white people and bring our folks into the movement en mass.
