The 99% Spring is coming.

This Spring, Jobs with Justice is proud to have joined with groups from
every corner of our movement to plan a massive campaign of bold nonviolent
direct actions to make the voices of the 99% impossible to ignore.

The key is making the 99% Spring as big as possible. That's why next week,
in small towns and big cities all across America, 100,000 people will come
together for an unprecedented national movement-wide nonviolent direct
action training. We'll learn to tell the story of our economy and what went
wrong, we'll learn the history of nonviolent direct action, and we'll learn
how we can take action and create change. Local organizations and
volunteers are running more than 750 trainings in living rooms, union
halls, churches, and community centers nationwide.

Our nation's greatest steps forward have come when everyday people stood up
and took courageous, visionary, morally compelling direct action—from the
struggle to secure the vote for women, to the strikes that built power for
workers and unions, to the civil rights movement.

Last year, from the Wisconsin workers who took over their state capitol to
Occupy Wall Street, we saw a new movement in America using direct action to
highlight the massive inequality that's destroying our country.

The 99% Spring is our chance to maintain and broaden that change-making
energy, and learn how we can take action to challenge corporate power, end
tax giveaways to the 1%, fight the influence of money in politics, and
create an economy that works for all of us. We’ll be taking the fight to
the doors of some of the worst of the worst: Bank of America, Sallie Mae,
Wal-Mart, Verizon and Wells Fargo.

Our movement is uniting, and we have the opportunity to create a powerful
shift in our country. It all starts this Spring. Will you join in?

P.S. Last week, our very own Sarita Gupta was featured on Bill Moyers' show
to discuss next week's 99% Spring and the power of collective action. If
