FIGHT FOR $15 The Fight for $15 started with just a few hundred fast food workers in New York City, striking for $15 an hour and union rights.
Today, it is an international movement in over 300 cities on six continents of fast-food workers, home health aides, child care teachers, airport workers, adjunct professors, retail employees – and underpaid workers everywhere. In February 2015 Walmart announced it was raising wages for 500,000 of its workers, after years of demonstrations.<br>

In 2007 the U. N. adopted the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People. Advocates and supporters are forming the world’s first global civil rights movement. The unifying issue facing Indigenous Peoples everywhere is how to protect their territories and stop the “asset stripping” that robs them of their livelihoods and the foundation of their cultures. Methods in include court cases, public education, demonstrations and civil disobedience. Global Indigenous Peoples Movement We can consider the potential role that indigenous peoples can play
in envisioning truly sustainable alternatives to capitalism.

What is to be done?
First we must try to tell the truth and a condition of truth is to allow suffering to speak. For 40 years, neoliberals lived in a world of denial and indifference to the suffering of poor and working people and obsessed with the spectacle of success.
Second we must bear witness to justice. We must ground our truth-telling in a willingness to suffer and sacrifice as we resist domination.
Third we must remember courageous exemplars like Martin Luther King Jr, who provide moral and spiritual inspiration as we build multiracial alliances to combat
poverty and xenophobia, Wall Street crimes
and war crimes, global warming and police
abuse – and to protect precious rights and
liberties.

Local Community as the Basis of a Humanized Earth-friendly World.
A covenant of Human Rights for all and the Sacredness of the Earth and all things.
The community learns and grows together in understanding and living a nonviolent way of life grounded in the sacred
interconnectedness of all life.
The Welfare of all in the community - Everyone is guaranteed enough to have a decent human life.
The community is everyone’s social security.
The community works by consensus to the extent possible, and makes direct democracy decisions about individuals given local power. Vigilance is exercised to see that those prone to take control and dominance are not given leadership roles.
All land is held in common. No one “owns” the earth, air, water, sky. Individuals/families own their home and belongings.
Simplicity of life – no one can steal the resources by “getting rich.” Eventually, money and profit is eliminated.
Everyone works and contributes to the good of the whole, according to their abilities and limitations in being differently abled. The accent is on service.
The local community is as self-sufficient as possible. Circles of local communities work together for needs that require wider cooperation. The local community grows its own food, makes its own clothing, builds with local materials, lives in harmony with the local environment. The community relies on Intermediate Technology. Choices are made based on needs, preserving community, and being earth-friendly and care to not be addicted or trapped by making technology a god. Eventually, people choose to not have nation states.
Vigilance is exercised to see that bigness does not interfere with direct human relationships. No corporations.
Education is a life-long learning, and is grounded in accepting conflict as an ordinary part of life, and teaching ways of creative nonviolent conflict resolution. Education is focused on the purpose of life – growing to one’s full human potential to become self-actualized, enlightened human beings.
Children learn to participate in creating their curriculum, and learn in the community as well as in classrooms.<br>
