Date: 05/07/2015

Julia Ho introduces #STLFreedomLooksLike campaign at the #UnveilTheProfit March at the Arch on July 2nd, 2015.

"A lot of you are probably wondering what's next. You're probably thinking 'Can't take this no more!' and you're wondering what we can channel our energy into. We know that in order to win this fight we have to be in the streets--we have to keep telling these 1%-ers what we really think of what they have done to us and our city. But we also have to organize and come up with our own solutions. We have to create a better system. And it's going to be a lot of work. It isn't going to be easy. But you know what?! I don't see anyone else doing it for us. So we've got to stay angry. We've got to stay organized, and we've got to stay unified. 

"What are we going to do next? We are going to keep unveiling the profit because the people deserve to know who is running their city and who is making decisions for us. Visit www.PowerBehindThePolice.com to read more about this. At the same time we are going to start the project together of creating our vision for a better St. Louis. That's what the #STLFreedomLooksLike campaign is about. 

"$380 million is currently being spent on a monument of colonialism and the genocide of indigenous people otherwise known as Westward Expansion. What do you think that money could be better spent on? Yell it out! Healthcare, schools, jobs, full employment with a living wage for everyone, wheelchair accessibility...

"We are going to be hosting a strategic visioning session to decide what we want to do next (could be edited to be a bit stronger). Saturday July, 11th from 11am to 5pm we are going to be at Blank Space hosting our first collective visioning session. Join us!

"We know that this current system of unfettered corporate capitalism cannot exist any longer, and we have what it takes to create something new!"
