Socializing for Justice - www.sojust.org
Since
2006, we've been building this great sandbox where we can bring
progressives of all stripes together and try out new ideas in this
"Movement Moment". Spaces like this are crucial as we start to reframe
and build new visions for our movement(s).
SoJust
hosts events that draw progressives of all stripes that share common
values but may work on different issues. We host monthly socials that
allow for the possibility of cross-issue connections and run a monthly
Skillshare Series, hosted by The NonProfit Center*, which increases our
individual capacity for movement building.
With
over 2300 members and 7 years of creating a diverse cross-issue
community in Boston (160+ events!), Socializing for Justice is the best
place to find the great people, organizations and community you're
looking for while putting the SOCIAL back in social justice.
YES, WE MEAN YOU.
We've got members of all ages, races, genders, sexual orientations,
levels of activism and professions. We hope you see someone like
yourself and meet someone you otherwise wouldn't have.
