A cikin 2003, Moyer ya kafa Gangamin Backan baya, wanda ke zaune a Tsibirin Vashon, Washington. A can, yake jagorantar horo a fannoni biyar na "Ka'idar Canji" ta kungiyar: gwagwarmaya ta fasaha, tsara al'umma, aikin al'adu don kawar da zalunci, tatsuniya da yin kafafen yada labarai, da dabarun neman mafita na canji na adalci.
