Welcome-
We invite you to join the fight with your own banner brigade!
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.
