About Me

.. .. Welcome to the MySpace presence of GoLeft.org The goal of GoLeft is to build an online community where progressive activists can gather, share information, and take action together. At GoLeft.org, you'll find news posts on events that matter to progressive-minded people, info on happenings in popular culture that relate to the kinds of issues we need to be tackling every day, profiles of member activists, a calendar of listings for upcoming events, and videos spotlighting nonprofits working on areas including HIV/AIDS, Environmental Justice, Reproductive Rights, Anti-Violence, Anti-War, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Rights, and Racial and Economic Justice.We want to do something different here. GoLeft is not just a site for individuals to aimlessly list their activities. We’re a community. A community of activists. A community of progressive-minded media junkies. A community of people who understand the web as a portal to in-person actions. We think about this virtual site as a gateway to building our real-world activities.We are working to make sure the progressive work going on out there is reaching as wide an audience as possible.GoLeft is the place that marries the things we like to talk about (popular culture) with the things we need to talk about (advocacy). GoLeft is also an ideal place to spotlight activists who aren’t receiving the media coverage they deserve. There is a great deal of progressive work currently being done around the country that can serve as inspirational models for people nationwide to advance or ignite their own activism. Check out our website at www.GoLeft.org ...today and every day!
