We’re on NBC News as part of their National Day of Racial Healing special!
The segment profiles Kentucky People’s Union (KPU), a working class-led project of SURJ organizing working people in Appalachian Kentucky for quality housing. Founded as a project of SURJ in 2022 in small town, majority-white Ashland, Kentucky, KPU has grown into a powerful organizing home in the region with over 100 members and dozens of leaders.
This is what SURJ’s organizing on multiple scales looks like: blocking the far right from further advancing in Washington, and cutting their base out from under them by growing our small town organizing in the South.
Watch NBC News Now online at 9PM ET and support KPU to expand across Kentucky here:
