The General Strike U.S. movement is a grassroots initiative aiming to unite Americans in a collective work stoppage to demand significant social, economic, and political reforms. The movement’s primary objective is to mobilize 3.5% of the U.S. population—approximately 11 million people—to participate in a general strike, leveraging the power of collective labor to advocate for change.
Key Objectives and Actions:
- Collective Action: The movement seeks to unite individuals and organizations across various sectors—including workers, activists, and community groups—to participate in a coordinated strike. This collective action is intended to exert pressure on policymakers and institutions to address issues such as economic inequality, racial injustice, and environmental degradation.
- Strike Card Initiative: To track and organize participants, the General Strike U.S. movement has introduced the “Strike Card.” This tool allows individuals to commit to the strike, providing a transparent way to monitor progress toward the 11 million participant goal. The data collected is used to coordinate efforts and ensure a unified approach.
- Decentralized Structure: Operating as a decentralized network, the movement does not adhere to a traditional hierarchical structure. Instead, it relies on a network of organizers and participants who collaborate to advance the movement’s goals. This approach emphasizes inclusivity and collective decision-making.
- Regular Meetings and Events: The movement hosts regular meetings and events to engage participants, discuss strategies, and build community support. These gatherings are conducted virtually, utilizing platforms like Discord, Google Meet, and Zoom, to accommodate a wide range of participants.
Values and Demands:
The General Strike U.S. movement is committed to values of racial, economic, and environmental justice. While specific demands are developed collaboratively, the overarching goal is to create a more equitable and sustainable society through collective action.
