Upcoming Events

Practice your Spanish/English skills, get to know your Allston-Brighton neighbors, and discuss key issues that affect all workers!

The theme is Housing Justice: Describe your home and neighborhood, complain about your landlord, and discuss the basics of tenant organizing.

Language exchanges allow language learners to practice with fluent speakers in a casual setting. Each event focuses on a specific issue affecting workers, from housing justice to labor unions, so that organizers can express themselves and understand others in their target language.

This event is for beginners of both English and Spanish. Participants will be provided with vocabulary sheets and conversation guides that are accessible to all skill levels. A facilitator will lead the group, pointing out key terms and prompting particpants to answer questions and pose their own.

¡Practica tu español e inglés, conoce a tus vecinos de Allston-Brighton y discute temas clave que afectan a todos los trabajadores!

El tema es Justicia en la Vivienda: Describe tu casa y tu barrio, expresa tus quejas sobre tu propietario y discute sobre los aspectos básicos de los sindicatos de inquilinos.

Los intercambios de idiomas permiten a quienes aprenden idiomas practicar con hablantes fluidos en un ambiente informal. Cada evento se centra en un tema específico que afecta a los trabajadores, desde la justicia en la vivienda hasta los sindicatos, para que los organizadores puedan expresarse y comprender a los demás en su idioma de aprendizaje.

Este evento está dirigido a principiantes de inglés y español. Todos los participantes reciben hojas de vocabulario y guías de conversación accesibles para todos los niveles. Un facilitador dirigirá el grupo, señalando términos clave y animando a los participantes a responder preguntas y formular las suyas.

Join our first canvass for our "No On 5" campaign against the upcoming tax ballot question which would funnel even more into the pockets of the rich.

We will canvass in the Savin Hill neighborhood of Dorchester.

Backed by millions of dollars from anonymous wealthy investors and CEOs, the dark-money Massachusetts Opportunity Alliance (MOA) is backing Question 5, a ballot initiative that would impose a strict ‘revenue cap’ on Massachusetts and slash funding for classrooms, hospitals, and first responders across the state.
