National Guard Out Now Rally + Pack the Court
Last year, the DC Office of the Attorney General filed a lawsuit to stop Trump's illegal deployment of National Guard troops in DC. The federal courts ruled in our favor, but the Trump Administration appealed and that appeal will be heard on October 14.
Join us in front of the Federal Courthouse at 8:30AM for a rally ahead of the case.
The hearing begins at 9:30AM and we hope you can pack the court with us!
The National Guard are not in DC for our safety. They are a danger to people here and we want them out. Analysis shows their presence is doing nothing to reduce violent crime. Instead, Guard members are increasingly detaining people in DC without cause, sometimes violently. And all of it is costing us more than $3 million a day, an amount that will eventually amount to billions of dollars.
Freedom’s Gate: Women Who Shaped a Movement
Step inside the legendary Village Gate with author Soyica Diggs Colbert, whose latest work, Freedom’s Gate, brings to life a powerful creative collective at the heart of the Civil Rights era.

Discover the friendships, performances, and radical imagination that reshaped American art and activism.
Freedom Dreaming in Ward 8
Join us at this in-person Freedom Dreaming session. Together we’ll explore how life in DC would be different if we had full political power, and create a vision for what we’ll want to achieve when we have it.
Author Talk: Shirley M. Marshall
Fighting for the right for women to vote in Washington, D.C. during the late 1910s
In September 1918, Elizabeth Kalb arrived in Washington, D.C. to fight for voting rights for women. In A Radical Suffragist in Washington, D.C.: The Inside Story of the Woman’s National Party (linked to catalog), local author and historian Shirley M. Marshall describes Elizabeth’s experience living and working at the National Woman’s Party headquarters and how the suffragists ensured politicians didn’t ignore women’s rights.
Copies of the book are available to check out from the library. A book sale and signing will follow at the end of the author talk.
This event is part of the DC Public Library system’s America 250 adult programming.
Amazon Workers Fight Back: Mass Call for Pregnancy Justice
Every year, October 15 is recognized as Pregnancy Loss Awareness Day—a day to honor the grief of families who have experienced the loss of a pregnancy or young child. This year, we are marking that day by hearing from current and former employees at Amazon who have experienced pregnancy loss due to Amazon’s mistreatment and abuse of pregnant workers.
During this mass call, you will hear from Amazon workers who have experienced pregnancy loss, and from labor champions, pregnancy justice campaign leaders, and special guests who have successfully fought to hold employers accountable to pregnancy accommodations through collective action.
Amazon is the second largest private employer in the US—yet over 2,000 pregnant workers’ stories collected by Warehouse Life describe a pervasive pattern of Amazon delaying and denying pregnant workers accommodations protected by federal law and retaliating against workers who fight back.
This is a moment to bear witness, build a worker-led coalition, and organize. Join us.
No Kings: Vote Early Nationwide Day of Action
Voting early gives us the power to make our voices heard before Election Day and before anyone else gets to decide what happens next. That's why we are participating in No Kings: Vote Early, a nationwide day of action.

Mother Up National Convening
Mothers Outreach Network will host the Mother Up National Convening on November 5–6, 2026, in Baltimore, Maryland, in partnership with the University of Baltimore School of Law's Sayra and Neil Meyerhoff Center for Families, Children and the Courts (CFCC). I am honored to announce that Professor Dorothy Roberts will deliver the keynote address — a special opportunity to hear directly from the scholar who has defined the legal and constitutional critique of family policing.
Learn more about Professor Roberts: https://www.dorothyeroberts.com
This convening brings together researchers, advocates, funders, and mothers with lived experience, offering the Mother Up Pilot's methodology as a model others can build on and help spread. The pilot itself is the first known guaranteed income research pilot studying the impact of cash on child welfare system involvement, with independent research conducted by the Access to Justice Lab at Harvard Law School. Its concept was published in 2022, in the article "Building a Guaranteed Income to end the 'Child Welfare' System." At its core, this work is about transforming family policing — the harmful, coercive, and unconstitutional policing of families — into systems of care that keep families whole. This convening also marks the launch of an ongoing group that will continue this work together beyond the event itself.
2026 Native Knowledge 360° Teach-In
The Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) and Teaching for Change deliver a day of online conversation, curriculum highlights, workshops, and idea exchange — preceded by a short keynote presentation.

DCFPI’s 25th Anniversary Policy Forum & Reception
As the DC Fiscal Policy Institute (DCFPI) celebrates 25 years of advancing racial and economic justice, we’re using this milestone to look beyond the immediate political landscape and think boldly about what comes next.
The Monday after Election Day, we’ll gather to discuss the imperative of a Third Reconstruction —a new era of transformative change in our democracy, economy, and public institutions—and what it will take to advance that change. We’ll discuss DC’s specific role in catalyzing a new wave of political rights nationally and the next wave of transformative economic rights locally.
Join us for this critical conversation about what’s possible—and what it will take to build the future we deserve.

Freedom Dreaming in Ward 4
We look forward to seeing Ward 4 members at our September Meeting!
Our focus this month is Freedom Dreaming. Together we’ll explore how life in DC would be different if we had full political power, and create a vision for what we’ll want to achieve when we have it.
Juror Information Project
Harriet’s Wildest Dreams and Free DC are coming together for a juror teach-in. We’ll discuss what it really means to serve on a jury and how we can use that role to protect our people especially those with marginalized identities who are disproportionately targeted by the criminal legal system.
Jury duty is not just a civic responsibility; it’s a powerful tool for ensuring fairness and justice. As community members, our participation in juries is vital to safeguarding the rights of those who are most vulnerable to systemic biases. By serving on a jury, we can influence outcomes and help create a more equitable legal process.
Come and engage in meaningful conversations, learn from legal experts, activists, and fellow community members, and find out how you can play a pivotal role in shaping a more just society. This session is open to everyone.
Power in Action Community Committee (PiACC)
The FBC Power in Action Community Committee will be meeting virtually next Monday over Zoom. The PiACC is a political home for folks of all experience levels to better understand how to build real, moveable power in their communities.
While focused on the budget, the skills learned in this container are transferrable to other movements.
Please contact Afeni (afeni@fairbudget.org) to be added to the recurring calendar invite or to schedule a 1:1 to learn more about PiACC.
Controlling the Story Media Literacy Training
Recognizing how framing and narrative can change how we view and examine the stories around us can help us read, watch, and listen to media more critically–and help us better tell our own stories.
Join the DC COLLAB for an in-person and virtual interactive training in which we'll break down:
How framing and word choice can change the meaning of a story
The biases and preconceptions that can affect how news is reported
How media monopolies affect what you see, read, and hear
How "copaganda" shapes how we view police and crime, who we fear, and who we sympathize with
What ethical journalism looks like and the best ways to interact with the press
How storytelling and thoughtful framing can be used to challenge harmful narratives and build movement power

What if Southeast DC residents had a direct say in the decisions and resources that shape our communities? Join PACA for an afternoon of community input and decision-making.

This training will prepare individuals for proper etiquette and the process of engaging in situations with police presence.
Some of the expectations include stopping to record what the police do, letting community members know their rights, informing community members they are not alone during police interactions, and making sure police know that they are being watched.
This training is required for individuals interested in participating in The Responders and DC Safety Squad cop watch strolls.
