Donald Trump is officially president. He has taken power of a government that is entirely out of control. Our elected representatives have no problem with oppressing the working class in order to expand their financial gains.

The women’s march and anti-inauguration protests around the world have been an incredible success in terms of getting people together in order to organize our long lasting resistance.

Friday, January 27, 4pm, OSU Oval [near the Thompson statue]

Refugees are welcome here! No human being is illegal!

On Friday, January 27, we will be rallying near the Thompson Statue on the OSU Oval (at 4pm) in response to Trump’s explicit targeting of refugee and immigrant communities.

In the seven days since Trump has taken power, he has pushed forward a slate of reactionary executive orders:

• Authorizing the expansion of the US-Mexico border wall

• Stripping federal grant money to sanctuary cities

• Hiring 5000 border patrol agents

Friday, February 24, 3:30pm, gathering at the Wexner Center Plaza at the corner of N. High St. and 15th Ave.; the march will leave at approximately 3:45pm

The Ohio State University is one of the largest public universities in the country. So what do we do when the administration tries to sell our tax-payer owned energy management system to a private corporation, for private profit and benefit, at the expense of unionized campus workers? We fight back.
