CHAAD Project
We sat down with Raeghn Draper, the Co-Founder and Executive Director of the CHAAD Project, a BIPOC-and queer-led, Chicago-based advocacy and mutual aid organization working at the intersections of labor justice, racial equity, gender justice, and public health to dismantle oppressive structures embedded in the restaurant and bar industry.
In this Collective Conversation, we discussed topics like:
How listening is at the root of community-organizing
The importance of self-regulation as an organizer
The connection between art-making and claiming power
The impact of local elections
How to show up and advocate for hourly workers
