Learn to how design, execute nonviolent direct action to protect democracy

There is a lot of work to be done in the coming weeks to protect our democracy, but the strongest and final safeguard for these elections is our unwillingness as a country to accept stolen results. In the most dangerous scenarios, like Republicans refusing to seat Democratic winners in Congress, we need to be prepared for mass nonviolent noncooperation.

🙋🏿‍♀️ Showing Up For Racial Justice is holding a three-session training starting TONIGHT and running on Mondays throughout this month on how this sort of direct action works and how to design and effectively execute such an action. If we want to be part of the final line of defense, we can sign up to join them here. 🙋🏻‍♂️

SKILL UP MONDAYS AT 7:30PM

🙋🏻‍♂️ We can also get plugged in by joining Freedom Trainers for their next Noncooperation 101 training on October 21st here, or sign up with the Sunrise Movement to get trained and be in position in key states to take action to stop a coup here. 🙋🏿‍♀️

Also in today’s List:

-  Martin Soto, other Delaney Hall prisoners are seeking visas for crime victims cooperating in criminal investigations, and the New Jersey AG can help them

Daily phonebanks for Abdul El-Sayed, Will Lawrence

We’re fighting to flip Congress with some fierce progressives in key races in Michigan. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed and Will Lawrence are running for the Senate and the Seventh Congressional District on a bold platform of getting oligarch money out of politics, Medicare for All, taxing the billionaires, and abolishing ICE. We can do more than just block the Trump agenda – with victories here we can start laying the ground work for real progress after he’s gone.

☎️ Progressive Victory is going to be running phonebanks for both these Michiganders DAILY from 5-8PM ET. Let’s sign up for a shift here and fight for our future! ☎️

BE IN THE FIGHT EVERY DAY
