This is the correct take. The Resistance is everywhere. We are in every red rural district and every big city and all the suburbs and EVERYWHERE across the nation.

We can surrender to the forces of autocracy, bigotry, xenophobia, and minoritarian rule.

Or we can organize the pro-democracy majority to reclaim its power.

We choose to organize: indivisible.org/groups

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media hereβ€”but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

β€”With love,
Your American allies.

Green background with text reading what are we focused on? πŸ—£οΈ DOGE plans to terminate leases on dozens of NPS buildings: headquarters, museum spaces, visitor centers, and more.

πŸ‘€ Interior Secretary Burgum and Energy Secretary  Wright plan to review federal lands for resource extraction. This could mean LOGGING in forests, REMOVAL of federal protection, and DELETION of National Monuments. 

😑 The attack on DEIA removed funding for staff, initiatives, and intern/volunteer opportunities.

πŸ₯Ά The continuing hiring freeze means 1 in 4 NPS positions are vacant, with no plan to move forward. 

🫠 We can’t forget the incoming Reduction In Force, which may decimate a further 20-30% of the NPS workforce.

Blue background with text reading protest etiquette/safety: PLAN AHEAD: What are your designated routes and meeting spots? Do you need/have a permit? 

PREPARE FOR THE WEATHER: Sunscreen, bug spray, umbrella… you get the point. 

MAINTAIN AWARENESS: Be prepared to converse with passers-by. Stay safe near roads and other hazards. 

PACK YOUR GO-BAG: Bring first aid supplies, water, and snacks.

LEAVE NO TRACE: Pack it in, pack it out. Bring bags and encourage others to pick up trash.

MOST IMPORTANTLY: 
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!

Teal background with text reading what to bring: Pre-made signs and a sign-making station: people will show up without signs, and this is a great way to keep them included, involved and engaged.

Action Kits and Junior Resistance Ranger Books (from RR Website)

Write-Your-Reps / Thank-A-Ranger station: prepare postcards and have an outline for participants to write to their representatives. Bring stamps to share!
