I would love to be pointed to anyone you know who gives folks guidance about better and worse ways for (white) folks to do this type of work.

sent you a long comment on youtube "I've had it" post. U talked about the need for white folks to engage maga adjacent folks instead of leaving this work to POCs. I have written multiple books on this issue, and am hoping to find other similarly interested content creators. david@thedialogueguy.com

Yesterday the Greensboro News and Record published an op ed about how we can improve town hall meetings to make them more engaging and persuasive. You can get the full pdf within abetterconvening.com

#onemillionrising I want to meet with people who want to make town hall meetings more persuasive and more engaging

#onemillionrising yes....we all need to learn how to persuade folks we know to be more open to the idea of resisting...person to person persuasion is as important a skills a protesting!

#onemillionrising Yes Yes....Gene....we must learn how to talk to people we know!! that is a critical and underappreciated skilll in the resistance movement. if anyone wants to start a group on that, let me know.....most folks, especially white folks, know people who need to be reached

#onemillionrising zoom meeting at a capacity? a little disturbing...but a great problem to have!! Great sign for the movement!!!

#onemillionrising "We are fighting to make this country suck less"....speak on it Gene!!!

#onemillionrising This is what a rear guard action by white supremacy looks like. Yes, breaking all customs that help democracy...and at the suggestion of one fool. My hope is that we learn how to fight facism without becoming facistic ourselves. ...... WE STAND WITH YOU GENE!

#onemillionrising I am not a normally a canvasser, but I do think A LOT about persuasion. But the signs idea is so juicy, I have signed up!! I could easily see this making a difference in parts of DC!!

#onemillionrising 2100 is great....and inspiring...and you said it....we can do better than that!!

#onemillionrising What a great idea...getting business owners to put those signs up...I live in DC, and I want to go out to brown areas to promote this. Fantastic idea!!

#onemillionrising Given the mobilization of local police, national guard, military, and the growth of ICE, we need to support people who personally know folks being recruited into facism. We should spread the skills of persuasive conversation!

#onemillionrising Learning how to talk to people is SO critical. We could think about extending that to talking to other folks too.

#onemillionrising there is that number.....20,000 great to hear that! if it grows, I hope they update us. Hearing that adds energy!

#onemillionrising I am sure many folks are on this call, but it would be great to know how many. But the opening speaker Ash-Lee is inspiring

I thought they were all self-made rugged individualists who didn’t rely on socialism.

Both are true:

1. This is what the American people voted for.

2. The American people didn’t truly understand what they were voting for.

Be prepared for a big win for presidents musk and trump

Not like Us, the ironically unifying song with the most divisive message possible.

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce.

Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

Trump’s Inauguration Ratings Down Bigly From Biden’s The television ratings for President Donald Trump's second inauguration are in, and they dropped 27% from President Joe Biden's in 2021 and were nearly 20% lower than Trump's first swearing-in in 2017...

Who made this 🤣

Looking for actual quotes from live conversations with Trump supporters that bugged you. Context is helpful, but include your best memory of the comment.

People are starting to call him Vice President Donald Trump. This will not sit well with him, and I therefore encourage everyone to do the same.
