J-Town Action and Solidarity is a grassroots collective building community power in Little Tokyo. Our work is rooted in a history of activism and community care. We are driven by long standing connections to Little Tokyo as well as solidarity work with communities fighting inequitable development across Los Angeles. We stand with communities made most vulnerable by overlapping systems of oppression by showing up in action and in solidarity.
JAとS
Action and SolidarityWe fight for revolution now.
We fight for a revolutionary community that upholds decolonization, abolition, and socialism.
We expect nothing less from a community we love.
We dare to struggle and dare to win.
We make our case for precisely what that means.
Join our reading group to read and discuss revolutionary ideas and history -- open to all!
