Organizing against the injustices that the G8 and G20 signify requires that individuals and communities everywhere begin creating power and taking back space. This page will link to a variety of online links that might be useful for emerging and established political movements.
(please note that this is not an exhaustive list rather a compilation of what community groups are emailing to us. neither are these organizations endorsed by the Community Mobilization Network. If you have resources that you think would be useful to add, please email community.mobilize@resist.ca)

The G8/G20 meetings took place in Ontario from June 25-27, 2010. Toronto-based organizations of women, people of colour, indigenous peoples, the poor, the working class, queer and trans people and disabled people organized a peoples convergence with 40,000 people taking to the streets, standing up for justice in collaboration and solidarity!
Activists, community members, inspired and outraged individuals came together as a movement to demand justice for people and the planet. Over a week of mobilizations, events, workshops and direct actions took place in the face of state and police repression, violence and infringements on rights and freedoms.
We must continue to mobilize and build greater solidarity among our communities- an important part of this is supporting all those arrested during the G20 summit, including our allies still in detention, and those released on bail.
