Beautiful September/People Power
Juliette here. I am one of the core organizers of our rent strike, and I am pleased to announce that we are in our fourth month of #organized #rentstrike.Ā
When I moved here, I was a charter school teacher looking for cheap rent and access to the mainland. I noticed that a few things were not quite right with how the island is run and the limitations placed upon us by the landlords of this island, but it was not until covid shut down much of our lives that we all came together and decided to do something about it.Ā
I am so grateful to be part of this community, part of this rentstrike, part of this blog. I look out over the ocean now and feel peaceful thinking about the power of neighborly solidarity and class consicousness, in the midst of these troubled times.Ā
Peace and solidarity from San Salinas Island <3Ā
