Welcome to Backbone Campaign!

Backbone Campaign amplifies the aspirations of "We the People" with creative strategies and artful activism to manifest a world where life, community, nature, and our obligations to future generations are honored as sacred.  

Backbone Campaign Pledge of Nonviolence: Backbone Campaign is a nonviolent movement-building organization that utilizes creative tactical tools and artful activism and is strongly committed to nonviolence in all of its work. We unequivocally condemn any form of violence, property destruction, or advocacy of violence by representatives of, or participants in Backbone-affiliated actions. We will not condone any actions that could endanger our supporters, the public, or counter-protestors. We consider any call for violence or behavior inconsistent with the above to be agent-provocateur-like behavior, and it will not be tolerated. To participate in Backbone actions, participants must agree to this nonviolence pledge.

July 4th in DC

Amidst this moment of national crisis, unprecedented corruption, and concentration of unchecked executive power by the Trump Administration Backbone invites you to be part of an epic “take the streets” action this July 4th in Washington, DC when we deploy all 700 feet of our We the People banner.

Send We the People to DC and Beyond! Support Historic July 4th Demonstration & National Pivot

We can't do this work without you. On July 4th, Backbone will take the streets in DC, with a vision for the future, a pivot for our movement from defining ourselves by what we're opposed to, to what we propose.  With your support, we'll assert a vision for the future in which the arc of history continues to bend toward justice, expands liberty, and increases the welfare of all. Post July 4th, we'll be organizing region-wide tours of We the People (accompanied by the Procession for the Future banners), continuing to collect signatures and inspire change. We also plan more trainings in light projection and want to get even more communities set up with this powerful tool, in time for "projection season" in the fall. JUST IN: A couple of long time supporters are offering a $21,000 match, to help us reach our $60,000 goal.  This means that your donation will be doubled!  Please pitch in today, so we can claim this generous matching gift.
