Material Needs are critical resources needed by all humans. We're doing a really bad job as a global society for meeting those material needs of our people. We can change that with a few simple steps:

  • Community Building: Reaching out to your fellow working class neighbors and saying hello, asking them about their life and see if they have any issues you can help with. From there build friendships, carry out mutual aid , tenants & worker rights educations, and community defense programs.
  • Community Gardens & Group Food Buys: By growing your own vegetables and fruits you can sustain your community for a longer term while teaching yourself and young ones to farm. If you're not available for farming and gardening there are local buying groups, and discount food wholesalers you can buy from which could maximize your value while helping those with not enough for their tables.
  • Mutual Aid: Water, Food, Hygeine supplies are all costly. By coming together with local church, school, park, political groups you can share the volunteer effort, and monetary cost to help provide a lot of critical resources for those in need.
  • Education: Modern English Language training, Jobs skill training, organized Leadership training are all skill sets people need to thrive in today's economy. More complex topics like workers rights, tenants rights, and self defense workshops are all ways for oppressed people to gain freedom. need.
  • Hackerspaces: An area where working people with some comfort pool resources and make available more advanced equipment, supplies, knowledge, and sanctuary for discovery, research, and creation to those who aren't as comfortable. Sharing ideas, successes and failures so working class people can achieve success.
  • Plazas: During Covid many of these closer proximity groupings are not advised due to the spread of the disease. However once things are calmer and its safe to group together again the prominence of Plazas, specifically for sharing of local matters of importance, new philosophies, and thought, and a public accountability platform for the elected leaders is hugely important. Throughout history Plazas have been mainstays in all communities, but in recent years many cities in the USA have specifically tried to demolish, block, and prohibit Plazas from existing. Don't let them keep us apart. Together we're strong.
