Busting the myth that Gen Z isn't protesting Despite a persistent belief that Gen Z isn’t politically active, young people are finding and creating ways to fight for a better future.

β€œDespite enduring countless blows, Gen Z continues to fight for justice in whichever ways it can. While their actions may not always be what other generations expectβ€”or even noticeβ€”young people’s impact on politics and activism is ever-present.”

Could we be entering a 'movement moment' against Trump? How to recognize the characteristics that make for powerful whirlwinds of protest against injustice and tyranny.

β€œDuring moments of the whirlwind, large numbers of bystanders who may have seen themselves as in agreement with a movement’s goals but were previously disengaged decide to get involved.”

Timely lessons for keeping people safe in the streets As Trump looks to increase repression, a new training guide explains how peacekeepers reduce fear and build solidarity.

β€œWhether or not you believe that large marches will thwart Trump’s authoritarian aims, protests that turn violent could certainly help him consolidate power.”

A Thousand Ways To Kiss The Earth

Please be sure to check on those around you. A lot of people are going through things right now or about to. It's imperative that we help those in need because through community we'll get through this. United in solidarity we win ❀️

Let others know you'll stand by them & have their backs.
