Want the BRU to document your transit story and archive it
with hundreds of other stories as a way to let TL that we're not alone?
Fill out a Public Transit Human Rights Violation Form. While it may not
seem that important, getting a BRU organizer to write down your transit
story is a very important tool to validate bus riders' experiences and
to collectivize our common experiences.
Want to learn more about the BRU is all about? Attend a
monthly membership orientation where you can share your experiences,
deepen your understanding of why we don't have a transit system that
serve our needs, and learn about how you can get involved with the BRU.
Monthly Public Meetings:
Want to know learn what our current campaigns are, how you can
get involved, share your experiences? Attend a public meeting. Public
meetings are a venue for democratic participation from bus riders and
members to learn about our campaigns, offer input and sign up for
concrete ways that you can get involved. Snacks, bus tickets, childcare
and translation in Cantonese & Spanish are usually provided.
Volunteer Your Time and Skills:
- Like to help out in concrete ways such as mail outs,
postering, call outs, typing? Call the BRU and let an organizer know
what you're interested in doing or by sharing your skills with us!
- Interesting in putting your skills for social justice? We're
looking for people who have webpage design skills, language skills in
Cantonese, Spanish, either written and/or spoken, graphic design,
research, urban planning/geography/public transportation.
- Interesting in putting your artistic/drawing skills to social
justice? You can design logos, posters, pictures, stickers, postcards
and t-shirts for us!
