Maypop Collective for Climate and Economic Justice
The Maypop Collective transitioned in 2016 into a political support group among its six members. They are now spread across the country – two in the Pacific Northwest, two in Lansing, MI, and two in Philadelphia. As a result, they are not currently carrying out shared political work or offering endorsements as Maypop, but are staying in touch to share skills, stories, and strategies around different organizing and social movement work.
