Joining any org or party is definitely one part of the pie, and that’s a direct thing we want everyone to do. But here’s the bigger play: we need someone with real media reach (a Hasan, Hakim, Second Thought type) to come out and say, *“I back this proposal for a national convention on December 20th, 2025, in New Orleans. This blog makes a solid point, and I’m putting my will behind making it happen.” *
That alone would spread like wildfire.
Right now, my reach is a few thousand people a week, but if you know any influencers or YouTubers, reach out. Show them the proposal. Just one big voice backing this would blow it up. And for the rest of us, keep the word going. Bring it up on Reddit, Discord, wherever, and say, “I read this blog about a national leftist convention on December 20th in New Orleans; it’s exactly what we need–spread it around!"
The more we get this circulating, the faster we build real momentum. Let’s make it happen.
Why late 2025? Can't something like this get put together sooner?
No, as the other user posted, random calls to action don't typically work, they take a lot of planning and organizing. That's the point of making the call to action now, so we can start planning, start sharing ideas.
