When a state government goes full authoritarian cosplay, the people in that state become the first line of defense. The State Collectives category highlights coordinated networks of organizers, advocates, and everyday resisters working at the statewide level to protect rights, push reform, and block fascist power grabs before they spread.
These collectives connect local movements, amplify regional wins, and make sure no community fights alone. From capital-city pressure campaigns to statewide strike support — this is where resistance scales up.
We defend our states, so the nation doesn’t fall.
