Unidos with Poder is about building social power.

Social power is the ability to force decisionmakers. It relies on disrupting the functioning of capitalism, of institutions, and of processes. 
Workers have social power in relation to their workplace, students to their school, voters to the electoral jurisdictions in which they live, etc.
 

The only way we get the future we need, where everyone can be safe and healthy, is by building power together.

At Poder in Action and AZ Poder, we are building social power to achieve 3 main goals:

• INVEST IN OUR PEOPLE: Invest in the creation of new systems and practices that center the health, wellbeing, and safety of people impacted by state violence.

• HEAL, TRANSFORM, LIBERATE: Radically transform the world we're living in to get the future we deserve, free from white supremacy, patriarchy, and anti-Black and Brown violence.

• END POLICE VIOLENCE: Abolish the systems that harm our communities so our people can live, move, and love freely.

All of our work will fall under one or more of these goals. By joining Unidos with Poder, I commit to being part of a community fighting for a city that is safe and healthy for all our people. It is a commitment to build social power through collective action, shared values and goals.

I will: 

• Be ready to take action to move community towards our 3 goals.
• Attend virtual quarterly meetings
• Stay up to date through emails and texts
• Talk to your friends and family about the Poder Vision
