It’s Time For A New Social Contract! Featuring Naomi Klein

Join bestselling author and journalist Naomi Klein and National Director of The Working Families Party Maurice Mitchell in conversation with Philadelphia community leaders on how we can build a new social contract for our best possible future. We'll begin with opening remarks from Working Families candidate for Philly City Council At-large Kendra Brooks, and hear from local speakers including Kris Henderson (Amistad Law Project); Nancy Nguyen (Alliance for a Just Philadelphia); Esteban Kelley (U.S. Federation of Worker Cooperatives); and Nora Elmarzouky (Philadelphia Climate Works). Discussion moderated by Cathy Albisa of the National Economic and Social Rights Initiative.

With our climate, democracy, and economy all unraveling at once, our current social contract needs to be replaced with something capable of meeting the challenges of our time. Our communities and social movements already have the solutions. The New Social Contract Tour is bringing national and local leaders together to raise the profile of these solutions and impact the national conversation.

We can, and must, fight for and build this future together.
