2024: Our Repair Mandate Campaign

This election, freedom and equality are on the line. We're taking back our future from white supremacists and putting reckoning and repair on the ballot.

America has a problem: MAGA Republicans are helming a centuries-old campaign to bolster white supremacy: making equality illegal, banning efforts to rectify discrimination, and manufacturing laws, lies, and violence to uphold the exploitative systems a wealthy, white few have relied on since enslavement and genocide to hold onto power. They see this upcoming election as a key opportunity to cement white supremacist rule and lock themselves into power, but we can’t let them.

Repair is the solution: We’re making a youth-led campaign intervention to change the course of 2024 and take back our future. This summer, we will raise the alarm about the historic threat we face from the MAGA faction and push Democratic Party leaders to reckon with white supremacy by committing to our repair mandate in their platform and actions.  Then, after the election, we can turn up on a Democratic-led federal government and make them pass reparations policies so we can finally all get free.

What’s our Repair Mandate?

It’s what is necessary to undo white supremacy, correct the record, and repair the harm.  The following actions are what the Democratic Party must adopt in order to show us that they're serious about making freedom and equality real for all, no matter our races, backgrounds, or genders:

  • Restoring dignity, freedoms, and rights to all those wronged under racial, gender, and economic hierarchies and inequalities. 

  • Returning the wealth, land, and resources that rich corporations and the 1% owe communities for generations of exploitation, enslavement, and genocide. 

  • Healing our communities from the ongoing trauma and impacts of the laws, lies, and violence designed to deny our humanity.

  • Recognizing and reckoning with the whole truth of our history and how it has shaped our present. 

  • Removing ongoing barriers to equality and rewriting the rules to ensure these wrongs founded in enslavement and genocide never happen again.
