It behooves our citizens to be on their guard, to be firm in their principles, and full of confidence in themselves. We are able to preserve our self-government if we will but think so.

ABOUT THE RICHMOND GREENS

The Richmond Greens invite you to join with us in building a local Green Party which will reflect the social and racial diversity of the Richmond community. Our aim is to participate in both electoral and non-partisan activities which promote Green values, as expressed in the Ten Key Values, which are universal to all Greens. We have built a strong base of support both nationally and in the state of Virginia, and have confidence that this base will grow as more people become aware of the Green Party and its commitment to middle and working class people, protecting our environment for future generations, promoting a more just and compassionate society on a global level, and fighting for the interests of those who have been left behind or receive a disproportionate share of benefits in this, the richest country in the world. If you would like to know more about us and our activities, call or email us or attend one of our meetings. And tell your friends and families -- in this age of corporate controlled media, person-to-person communication may be the best resource we possess.
