A home for white people working for justice

When we fight racism, we all win.

SURJ mobilizes white people for justice across the country. Through campaigns, education, and action opportunities, we move our people to reject racism and complicity– and to join movements for change.

Current Campaigns

Learn more about our current work and join us in action below.

In our one-hour gatherings we make calls, sign petitions, send emails, and take online action to close jails, defund police, invest in communities, protect Indigenous rights to land and water, and more. You’ll receive training and support throughout the session as well as a community of fellow SURJ members to take action with! 

We have thousands of white folks who have said they’re ready to get involved with us, but need a conversation or nudge to get started. At our “Turnout Tuesdays” event, we call these folks and help them plug in. This is a great place for new phone bankers to practice having conversations with people ready to get involved.

Whether you’re new to SURJ or have been with us before, we’re glad you’re here! We’re the largest organization in North America that explicitly organizes white communities for racial and economic justice. Sign up to hear about what SURJ does, why we do it, how we’ll win, and how you can join our team!
