Authoritarian threats are escalating across legal, cultural, economic, and social arenas. Many organizations and movements are asking vital questions: ✨ When do we speak out publicly? ✨ How do we express solidarity while also preserving organizational and community safety? ✨ What conditions could support us in taking bolder stances rooted in transformative solidarity? To meet this moment, we’re sharing Solidarity Stances — a resource for organizations and networks navigating authoritarian conditions.Rather than defaulting to defensiveness or isolation, the seven stances invite us to move with intention and connection to:    🔹 Protect one another  🔹 Disrupt authoritarian narratives and systems  🔹 Strengthen movement infrastructure  🔹 Deepen our collective capacity to come together 🔗 This framework offers practical pathways for action, helping organizations discern which stances to take in times of chaos and crisis, while honoring their unique contexts, constraints, and possibilities: https://lnkd.in/e9HwbwQD 💬 Join Adaku Utah and Deepa Iyer from the Building Movement Project on September 9, 2pm EST for this LinkedIn Live, where we’ll explore how movements can use these stances to build deeper, more aligned forms of solidarity — even under authoritarian conditions.
