Grassroots Global Justice is an alliance of
U.S.-based grassroots groups who are organizing to build an agenda for
power for working and poor people. We understand that there are
important connections between the local issues we work on and the
global context, and we see ourselves as part of an international
movement for global justice.
We believe that movement building is grounded in the development of
grassroots organizations and leadership development to achieve local,
national, and global justice.
We believe in building relationships of solidarity between and among
organizations in the United States and across the world. We have much
to learn from and share with our international allies.
We believe that as a US based organizations, we must be committed to
building a strong enough movement to prevent the US government and US
corporations from suppressing popular movements and interfering in the
internal affairs of other countries.
We believe in creating opportunities for convergence that facilitate
resource sharing, popular and political education, skill sharing and
dialogue between organizations.
We believe in joint action, that acting together in the U.S. and globally we have more power to create social change.
We believe by working together - Another World is Possible, a world
based on the principles of international solidarity, justice, peace,
dignity, equality, human rights, sustainability and democracy!
