Organizing for Another World
Right now, you're doing something that someone else already has: you're visiting this site. Chances are, the same goes for your social justice endeavors.
I envision a site where you can easily look up groups focused on similar issues or campaigns; network to make your group stronger; share best practices; become knowledgeable of interlocking oppressions or deepen your understanding of a particular issue; find places to work or volunteer; and, of course, help create something we can all use.
WIKIs arise and flourish from the philosophy that the many are smarter than the few. So send this site on to others to add their own information. It's time to use the technology available to us to strengthen our efforts.
WAIT!! Before you leave this page! Is wiki not in your vocabulary? Is creating a page as likely as becoming an astronaut for you? Contact me directly with the content you want on your page and I will create it for you or navigate you through the process!
Initial Project
To collaborate to build an activist resource. See Social Justice Movements wiki and SourceWatch.org for more developed ideas. Also see UnionWiki.org and Activism Wikia for developing ideas in this realm
Thinking of starting to work on IENEarth.org and RedOil

Discussion
Hello Kistine, I look forward to talking to you via phone about doing this work, where ever you want to do it! :-) Best, MarkDilley
I'm just glad to finally have some help to make this idea real! Thank you for your enthusiasm Mark :)~~Kistine
Hi Kistine, so the first thing I did, was grab RedOil.info, RedOil.org and RedOil.US for our first effort. (currently they link to RedOil.US but that is easily changed if you decide. MarkDilley
