The Houston Liberation Center is a socialist, working class community center at 2903 Telephone Rd, right between Second and Third Ward. We bring people together to learn about, discuss and fight around the most critical issues that we face as working class people — from racist police brutality and skyrocketing rents, to poverty wages and never-ending wars. We recognize that only together can we fight for a new society that prioritizes people over profit!
