Bringing big greens and grassroots groups together, and being able to build community. It allows people to be in spaces together that they would not normally be. I also think that the focus on justice and equity is central to the work and has made the network a unique and great space.

We can celebrate some wins, but there is still more economic and racial justice to work on

member alignment means we can move together, to meet challenges together, to persist together, to have a foundation of trust so that we can work in tandem and support one another

I have a lot of feelings about this. In some ways it feels like the moment we have been waiting for, for decades. However, some of our members are really hurt by it and so celebrating feels odd. I am just not sure how to feel, and I want to center those most impacted. I think if folks felt more seen in their hurt that could be helpful. I appreciate USCAN trying to dig into it.

I started off as a member of USCAN through Care About Climate. USCAN gave me and my org the opportunity to engage at national levels, especially since we are a youth org and so it is hard to get access to "adult" spaces. It also provided pretty significant seed funding for us through the catalyzing grants while we were able to work with other members. I can honestly say the network has been one of the most important spaces in my adult career and friendships.

Anti-Racist training as a requirement of membership; conversations about white supremacy and how that shows up in non-profits and how we can fight against pillars of white supremacy - hard conversations all of our members (specifically big greens and white led orgs) should have

We need to get big greens at the table, but join the work with conversations we are already having. It is really hard to get large org reps to show up to have an hour convo just about equity unless they are a cochair.

I don't think there are any negative implications. I think if there is better education about what direct action is and can be, more members would and should feel more comfortable participating.  we are more powerful with numbers.

We need more than anti-racist trainings that our members have once a year. One off trainings don't create systemic change. An antiracist curriculum should be built into an active year round membership.

I have mixed feelings about this. As a member, I felt like there were a few folks working on this, and it is an important tactic. However, sometimes I think it has been elevated above other things. People in AiA do not know about USCAN and visa versa. I felt like sometimes the projects I was working on with members did not feel as important as AiA to staff. I sometimes did not feel as supported in my Action Team work otherwise.

We would need to be very clear in saying what is a c3 or c4 action to our membership. A lot of orgs would be hesitant to participate otherwise.

I think that if we want to win and come together as a network, we all need to learn how to participate in civil disobedience - this has been integral to movements winning in the past - and I think it's time that we double down on this. We need to show up for each other and our members should be showing up for one another.
