#PeoplesHistory 25 years ago today over 50,000 of us came together to SHUT DOWN the World Trade Organization meeting in Seattle with mass direct action.
The historic "Battle of Seattle" united a diverse movement of movements to oppose corporate globalization, free trade and elite rule. 1/2

So that went well.
It was ordinary people organizing themselves to resist with collective direct action.
It's the same way we'll beat MAGA fascism.
For the real stories from organizers on the ground about HOW we shut down the WTO and WHY it still matters today check out the N30 history project.
Never forget what organized people power can do. https://www.shutdownwto20.org/
