FUELED BY VICTORIES

Greetings Project South Family!

Every day, in every corner of the world, marginalized people experience grave injustice. Persecution of Palestinians reveals Israeli police using the same brutality tactics Black and Brown folks endure in the U.S. Profit-driven health care is leaving poor folks from Argentina to Appalachia locked out of access to treatment, testing and vaccination amid a continuing coronavirus pandemic. Millions in communities in Tigray are being displaced by political violence while millions here also face displacement as an eviction crisis looms.

Yet, even in the midst of the chaos, we must remember to look to our victories for motivation. We must be fueled by each small step toward our liberation, to counter the moments when change seems impossible. And we must always stand and work in solidarity with the people – whether next door, or oceans and miles away, we are all connected by our struggles and our progress.

We are glad to have you as a part of the Project South family and we look forward to sharing more throughout 2021! Take a look back below at some of the wins we’ve been inspired by this summer.

In unity, in resistance, and in the spirit of collective work and responsibility,

Project South Staff Team
