- SONG Power Race Traitors Call – February 7
Calling all queer white Southern kin. Our ancestors designed this terror. Our cousins are the white vigilantes chasing and murdering Black people and fighting tooth-and-nail to extend this racist regime. We have comrades to answer to — we are beyond blessed to count ourselves as part of Movement. We have our own spiritual salvation to recuperate. Come and fight. RSVP for SONG Power’s Race Traitors call for white people. Calls like these have been taking place from 6-8PM EST/5-7PM Central on the first Sunday of each month. The first call of 2021 will be February 7 from 6-8PM EST/5-7PM Central. Though this call is focused on holding conversations between white SONG members, any and all SONG members are welcome to join. Calling all longtime SONG members and brand newbies. Whites who come from a lineage of ancestors who chose the Confederacy and now we spit on their graves. Whites from the hollers and river twists of Appalachia. Whites whose kin are carpetbaggers, came to the South to organize or in search of opportunity, stayed to make home. Calling the truckstop, trailer trash cutoff muscle tee dykes. The artists, the weirdos, the circus people, the shy ones. Whites whose people got money and you don’t know what do about it. Justice-loving Southern people who can’t sleep and can’t sit still watching sunburnt Rightwingers wave MAGA flags from their boats. The goals for these calls are to: Build connection, accountability, and relationship with each other Share a political assessment of what we are facing, rooted in the South Commit to testing shared strategies in our families and in our communities to Fight the Right Offer up ways for brand new folk to come into Movement and into SONG
