ADVANCING SOCIAL JUSTICE WITH TECHNOLOGY, MEDIA, AND CULTURA.
Lasting, transformative change happens when everyday people take action and speak out. Presente.org is the digital organizing platform for Latinx communities — and those who stand with us — to amplify our voices and fight for our collective welfare and dignity.
HIGHLIGHTS
We take care of each other.
Somos Salud seeks to keep Latin American and migrant communities safe and healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic.
NEW TPS for Central American and Haitian nationals
The climate crisis coupled with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic requires swift action by elected leaders. We call on the Biden-Harris administration to issue a new Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation for El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, and Nicaragua.

HOUSING IS A HUMAN RIGHT

Sanctuary Restaurants
We are in solidarity with restaurant workers, owners, and consumers and respect their dignity, human rights, and contributions to our industry and our nation – including immigrants, refugees, people of all genders, faiths, races, abilities, and sexual orientations.

Whistleblower #DanielHale pled guilty to one count under the Espionage Act, partially for his role in @TheIntercept's "Drone Papers." But all he did was tell us the truth. He performed a public service. Ask the sentencing judge to grant him leniency. http://fftf.link/daniel-hale
