Love, Resistance, and the Fight for Justice.

To All Our Relations,

People for Mobility Justice (PMJ) has taken time to process the results of a challenging presidential election and reflect on our role over the coming four years with the incoming presidential administration and the state of our nation. Like many of you, we witnessed the republican candidate run and win one of the most hate-fueled presidential campaigns in modern history and we share in the collective frustration, disappointment, and concerns regarding the implications of this outcome.

While we are disheartened by this country’s endorsement of white supremacy, racism, sexism, transphobia, and xenophobia, we also acknowledge the painful reality that some within BIPOC communities align with these harmful ideologies. This realization compels us to recognize our own accountability in not addressing this rhetoric more effectively within our communities. PMJ views this as a moment to deepen our commitment and to learn from where we have fallen short, knowing there is much work ahead.

We remain grounded and committed to our values-driven work. And we believe that equity, love, and intersectional dialogue and collaboration with our partners, will be critical in solidifying strategies to protect and advocate for each other during the incoming presidential administration.

As an organization, we continue to be committed to serving BIPOC communities from a perspective of love. Love for our communities. Love for immigrants. Love for our youth. Love for the elders. Love for people with disabilities. Love for women seeking reproductive health. Love for all people regardless of gender. We believe these next four years will require all of us to build a movement of resistance together. We must find the intersection in our work in order to build power for our communities.

Take heart, family. We are with you. We love you. We will resist the Hate.

In Solidarity,
People for Mobility Justice
