Episode 26: Transit in the Age of Coronavirus

This is an emergency podcast where we talk about actual organizing stuff, which it turns out you can do successfully even in a pandemic!

even though as mentioned we've won our main demand, there's still work to be done. here are the links: Sign the TRU petition, first to support the radically good ideas of the TRU, but most importantly for action – we'll be contacting everyone on that list to prep them to participate in the fare hearings live. https://actionnetwork.org/forms/tell-septa-no-fare-hike-during-a-pandemic/

The hearings will be May 26, 2020 - 11:00 am & 6:00 pm and May 27, 2020 - 10:00 am & 4:00 pm. Philly TRU will livestream the hearings - check phillytru.org or @phillyTRU on twitter for details
