I can't believe I wake up in the morning and get to be a community organizer in my home of Franklin County. @DownHome_NC is building multi-racial working class power all across the state!
We do this cowardly thing as a society. We reflect on past historical failures with full acknowledgement of their devastation. We don’t mince words. We speak directly. BUT, when stuff is happening in *real time* we’re mealy-mouthed or silent waiting for it to be over to step up.
Who's home? DOWN HOME! (say it again!) Building Power in Rural NC! LETS GOOOOOO

Often, organizers in WNC don't get the credit and attention they deserve. Still, we've got young folks like Sophie Mead, suing the General Assembly and winning for voters across our state. I'm so proud to know her and be a part of our WNC work! Watauga Co. continues to lead!
When Sophie Mead walked into Plemmons Student Union to vote in the primary election on Feb. 19, she said she had a new perspective. Read more in the story by Andrew Rice at the link below: bit.ly/43lxuhs

There's a housing crisis everywhere, but members at @DownHome_NC are tryna fix it up in Watauga County. My latest in @CardinalAndPine : cardinalpine.com/2024/03/28/op-…
So proud to work with the @DownHome_NC members across Granville, Person, Vance, Johnston, Pitt, Alamance, Cabarrus, Ashe, and Watauga counties who helped write our awesome 2024 housing platform. Big changes we need in NC asap!
