Step Up Louisiana

The members of Step Up Louisiana are committed to building political power to win education and economic justice for all. Our members will Step Up and go beyond voting to organize from a racial justice perspective, campaign and hold political and community leaders accountable. We will work in our own neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces to disrupt systemic oppression. We will build the people power needed to win in our city and state.

OUR APPROACH:

MULTIRACIAL, MULTIGENERATIONAL ORGANIZING

Our multiracial and multigenerational membership engages in campaigns that directly affect our lives. Organizing for economic and education justice in the South is fundamentally a fight against structural racism. This power analysis is essential to our work. We do the long term base-building work we need to win and are flexible to respond in times of crisis. 

Neighborhood Organizing Committees are the vehicle for how we decide campaigns and strategies.

Training and Leadership Development, including new member political orientations and ongoing skills training, strengthen and grow our membership.

Clear Political Vision and Electoral Strategy, including an issues platform and a ballot initiative, will have an immediate impact on local New Orleans elections.
