Solidarity Is the Strategy—And the Lifeline
— December 8, 2025 —
Solidarity is not a nice-to-have in this moment. It’s not a branding tool. It is the only way we get through this alive, with our dignity intact.
When the floods come, when the fires rage, when the rent skyrockets and the air becomes unbreathable, it’s not institutions that show up—it’s neighbors. It’s organizers. It’s us.
At the Hive, solidarity looks like sharing land, resources, and hard truths. It looks like showing up for a trans youth organizing against violence. It looks like learning how to listen to Indigenous teachings without appropriating them. It looks like building tools that aren’t neutral—they’re biased toward justice.
We don’t need more saviors. We need more accomplices. If you’re reading this, you’re already part of the net. Help us strengthen it.
Give if you can. Share if you can’t. Act either way.
This COGives Day, you can show your solidarity with a small financial pledge of support. Both one-time and recurring donations will be matched and are tax deductible. We also invite you to find some small scrappy orgs that are frontline-led or responsive to frontline leadership working on issues that make your heart sing, and show them some love.
Giving from your overflow is fun! and honorable. There are no shortages, only blockages. Join us in choosing the world where there is more than enough to go around.
With fierce love and urgency,
Lodi and Micha
