With all the eyes on American Samoa after Jason Palmer won the primary, it is a good time to remind people of what the island is according to U.S. law.

American Samoa is not considered a state. It is considered an "unincorporated territory". These territories are subject to some of the Constitution, but not subject to other parts. They pay tax dollars can't vote.

In other words.

American Samoa is a colony. A colony in the same way that the 13 states were when under the control of Britain, subject to taxation without representation.

These territories were seized from their native people. They were not given a choice. They must be given a choice now, between full statehood or full independence. Not this imperialist in-between. Power of the People supports self-determination for U.S. colonies.

Power of the People: Working to Fulfill Democracy's Promise

Who We Are

Power of the People is a coalition of anti-corruption humanitarians that seeks to fulfill Democracy’s promise of “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness” and demands basic human rights for all through establishing an Economic Bill of Rights. We seek a nation free of corporate and governmental corruption that ceases to infringe on the inalienable rights of its people. We call ourselves by different names: democratic socialists, progressives, New Deal Democrats, leftists, etc. Either way, we all believe in a better future and a politics of love that answers to the demands of the American people.

What We Believe In

The Right to a Living Wage

The Right to a Union

The Right to Healthcare through an expanded and improved Medicare for All

The Right to Universal Quality Education from Preschool to College

The Right to Good, Affordable Housing

The Right to a Clean and Healthy Planet through a Green New Deal

The Right to an Endowment of Resources at Birth and a Healthy Childhood

The Right to Sound Banking and Financial Services

The Right to an Equitable and Fair Justice System for All People

The Right to Democracy and Peace Here and Abroad

Where We Started

The founding members of Power of the People were volunteers for the Marianne Williamson 2024 Presidential Campaign. Marianne Williamson was a social worker and humanitarian who challenged Joe Biden for the Democratic Party's nomination in 2024. Among other things, she ran with the intent to institute a 21st Century Bill of Rights. For these beliefs, Marianne was consistently slandered and discredited by the corporatised mainstream media and the Democratic establishment. Eventually, the media blackout became so choking that she chose to suspend her campaign.

We loved Marianne Williamson, but we had one primary disagreement with her: her decision to suspend her campaign. Even if she had little chance of winning, her message was important nonetheless. We are here to continue her message at the local, state, and federal level, with or without an official campaign. We hope to bend the arc of history to justice with the power of solidarity & love.

Stay tuned for more! In the meantime, read what we agree with at Marianne2024.com/issues, promote Marianne's message at Wethepeople2024.me, and contact our media lead @veganvarian
