The Freedom to Learn Campaign is based on the belief that education is a RIGHT, not a privilege!

The Miami Workers Center is a strategy and action center. We build the collective strength of low-income people of color and our communities for power and self-determination. We initiate and support grassroots projects, known as Grassroots Councils, that are led by the people most affected by the social issues of our time: poverty, racism, and gender oppression.

Our campaigns, projects, and publications are rooted in working class communities of color, and address the totality of urban life with a particular focus on civil rights, environmental justice, public health, global warming, and the criminal legal system. We build consciousness, leadership, and organization among those who face discrimination and societal attack--people of color, women, immigrants, workers, LGBT people, youth, all of whom comprise our membership.

For almost fifty years, EMEAC has been working in the legislature, in the courts, in township halls and in schools. We played a role in the enactment of most of Michigan's environmental laws.

We have drafted regulations for local governments and have provided public information and environmental education opportunities throughout southeast Michigan.
