Picked these few fragments from #ihaveadream of #martinlutherking
( delivered 28 August 1963 #Washington #usa ):
"We cannot walk alone."
"We cannot turn back."
"No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until "justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream.""

That time #mlk spoke for #black people's rights. Today the scope is wider.

#decent humans standing #indivisible , helping each other - this is what we need!

BWAHAHAHA! Congress is in recess again.

Last recess, #Indivisible groups all over the country held "empty chair" or "cardboard cutout" town halls to shame AWOL #GOP Congress critters. This document shows the efforts of all the local Indivisible chapters, organized by AWOL critters' districts.

Now they're gearing up for another round, which promises to be even more intense!

This is the shit the legacy media won't show you.

1st they came for...

it's time to speak up. silence is complicity.

"We now are in techno-authoritarianism.
We have to learn how to digitally disobey.
That can be as simple as the dropdown box.
Don't accept the cookies,
don't give your real name,
download Signal, the encrypted messaging app.
Don’t bomb Yemen,
don't add the editor of "The Atlantic" to your group chats."

A new #resistance song by Seth Sean Watkins - an activist, radical balladeer in the #IrishMusic tradition. Listen and share. To launch movements, we need anthems like this. #MusicVideo #Politics #TheResistance #indivisible @indivisible

Question about signing up online with #Indivisible: if you have signed up, do you use your real name or your regular email address? I want to organize and be active, but I also don't want to get on a list that's going to get me (and many others) arrested right out of the gate (especially after hearing that Indivisible websites use Google Analytics). Resistance in this surveillance state needs strategy, and I'm not sure how to approach this. Thanks for your thoughts!

#FortWayne Journal Gazette published a few good shots of Saturday's #HandsOff protest. (Just between you and me and the lamppost, I'm at the lamppost.)

#MassiveProtests Against #Trump are Just The Beginning

A co-founder of #Indivisible lays out a vision for harnessing millions of protesters into an unstoppable pro-democracy movement

by Tim Dickerson, April 8, 2025

Excerpts: "The demonstrations were organized by a broad coalition — including groups that rose to prominence in the first Trump administration, like Indivisible, upstarts like the #50501Movement, as well as established grassroots groups like #MoveOn. The upswell of resistance surprised even seasoned organizers. Indivisible cofounder #EzraLevin texted Rolling Stone on Friday to predict 'one of the largest single-day protests in years' adding that the public response was “kind of shocking."

[...]

"This was a Big Tent — everybody from like #DSA to #MattYglesias and #NeverTrump Republicans were endorsing it. I had briefly gotten excited about calling this the 'Normal March.'

"Like the wacko, MAGA, right-wing crazies are not gonna be part of this. But if you’re a normal person, you would want to take part. Because obviously you oppose #Project2025, you oppose #DOGE and the richest man in the world coming after your #SocialSecurity.

"But I’m happy we went with '#HandsOff.' It served as a good rallying cry, because we all come to this for different reasons. Maybe we’re concerned about the #tariffs, maybe we’re concerned about #TransKids in our community being targeted, or the #immigrants being disappeared, or maybe we’re concerned about Social Security. We’ve all got something to fight back on."

Glad to hear about the smart people who showed up without signing up. Getting on "lists" now is not a good idea. https://mastodon.social/@indivisibleteam/114302470184621547 #HandsOff #Indivisible

I knew I should have taken my "SCOTUS is illegitimate" sign to the protest on Saturday. #handsoff #indivisible #5051movement

April 19 - mark your calendars!

@oliviaoftroye A pro-Trump acquaintance told me that he thought Trump must think he's stupid; and instantly I had my sign.

“Interesting social science research suggests that a small minority of people — just 3.5% — can change the world through civil resistance.” - Liz Ruskin - Alaska Public Media

For Greater Grand Rapids whose population is 1.1 million - that is just 38,500 people.

For the city of Grand Rapids (Population (2020): 198,893) - that is only 6,966!

And by the looks of it, we had about that at the Hands Off Rally! Thank you!"
