Democracy Convention

Democracy is coming... to the U.S.A.

At Liberty Tree, our work is guided by the following values:

  • Feminist, democratic principles of collective and individual accountability, mutual responsibility, active power sharing, and non-hierarchical organizing.
  • Effective movement building grounded in the real needs and experiences of people and communities struggling for democratic power and liberation.
  • American internationalism in the traditions of Thomas Paine, the Abraham Lincoln Brigade, and the Seattle WTO protests.
  • Nurturing relationships and an organizing culture that is joyful, hopeful and celebratory.
  • The concepts of Sankofa and the Seventh Generation: Sankofa reaches back into our history and carries it into the present; the commitment to the Seventh Generation means that decisions we make today must be evaluated by their impact on generations to come.
