Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church

1901 Thomson Rd, Charlottesville

Our Summer Activist’s Series continues Thursday July 10! Come join us to learn more about the how and why of our fight against fascism.

• How do we organize a protest, and plan a campaign, to create tangible changes in our lives here and now?

• How do we practice daily actions to protect each other from the grips of an authoritarian state?

• How do we connect across communities and issues?

• What have we learned from resistance movements in the U.S. and elsewhere?

• What have we learned from each other here in Charlottesville? Join as many sessions as you can – let’s build power!

Whiteness and the Myth of American Democracy

From Manifest Destiny to Jim Crow, this session will examine how white supremacy has shaped and upheld the illusion of American “democracy”, tracing the ways capitalism has created racial and class caste systems inherently embedded in U.S. political institutions and international relations policy.
