Organizing people, organizing meaning.
The Rural Urban Unity Project
Building a true pluralistic, multiracial democracy means recognizing the people, organizations, and strategies that fight everyday to inch us closer to this goal. The Rural Urban Unity Project offers case studies of successful organizing efforts from both emerging and seasoned coalitions that bring together communities working across difference and geography.
Past Projects
Care and Labor: The “Courage in Care” Doula Exhibition
“The Courage in Care” was developed by Narrative Initiative, the Burke Foundation and In Good Company in collaboration with New Jersey community members and a statewide advisory council of community doulas and maternal health leaders. Through photojournalism, audio storytelling and immersive environments, the exhibit explored abundance, community, joy and justice — grounded in the lived experiences of New Jersey doulas and the families they serve.
