“Workers Strike Back is an independent movement organizing on the streets and in our workplaces against the billionaires and their political servants.
We stand against the genocidal war on Gaza and for a permanent ceasefire. We're fighting for an end to the brutal occupation and all U.S. military funding for Israel.”
— Kshama Sawant
On Strike! is a production of Workers Strike Back, which was launched by Kshama Sawant and other working people in 2023 to spread the lessons of her decade as a socialist City Councilmember in Seattle, where she led movements to win historic victories like the first major $15 minimum wage, the Amazon Tax for affordable housing, and landmark renters’ rights like the first-in-the-nation ban on winter evictions. Workers Strike Back is building a movement across the country to fight for things like a $25/hour minimum wage, free healthcare and quality affordable housing for all, an end U.S. military aid to the Israeli war machine, and an end the genocide and occupation in Gaza. We’re organizing to begin laying the foundation for a new party for working people.
