Thanks to the falling price of clean energy and the commitment of activists like you, the coal industry is in retreat.  We’ve retired 259 coal plants in seven years—that’s one plant retired every eleven days.  And more than 3 million people now work in the clean energy economy, which now employs more people … Continued

We are a group of Bay Area tenants who are fed up with rising rents, evictions, and harassment at the hands of landlords.

A council is a group of tenants who work together to wield collective power against a shared landlord in order to improve their conditions. While, in general, councils may organize for more affordable, habitable, … Continued

Please come to our Inequality Seminar on Sunday, 4/29 at 11:00 AM at the OMNI! Strike Debt is building a debt resistance movement. We believe that most individual debt is illegitimate and unjust. Most of us fall into debt because we are increasingly deprived of the means to acquire the basic necessities of life: health care, education, and housing. Because we are forced to go into debt simply in order to live, we think it is right and moral to resist it. Come get connected with SDBA’s projects! Presenting debt … Continued

Tenant and Neighborhood Councils (TANC) is a member-run housing organization built out of the East Bay Democratic Socialists of America. We encourage all tenants of private landlords, unhoused people, and public housing residents, to join us in organizing councils. Existing avenues for combating rising rents, slumlord behavior, and evictions are channeled through non-profit organizations. These types of organizations, while a critical resource for tenants, do not necessarily challenge the larger structural dilemma that we face—the subjugation of housing under capitalism. Effectively challenging well-heeled landlords, developers, and state managers depends on … Continued
