Resisters for Democracy - Europe
Those of us far away (CET time zone) can also organize to help protect democracy in the face of crazy things from the once again 'president' (aka traitor) of the USA and his ilk... Join in with this group to brainstorm and act! The current administration's wrecking balls are affecting us all. Many countries have problems of right wing and authoritarian politicians... The thought is that this group might not just be for American voters, as so much of the world is having difficulties around democracy/totalitarianism... What could help everyone is to find concrete ways to take action that matters... Even from Europe, we can make our voices heard!

Reading the Resistance
Welcome to Reading the Resistance, a local group dedicated to fostering meaningful change and empowering individuals who want to actively resist the harmful impacts of the Trump administration. Through a combination of decompression events, book discussions, and educational resources, we aim to create a supportive space where like-minded individuals can come together to learn, share, and take action. Our book club will focus on reading and discussing books from the banned book list, exploring themes of freedom, justice, and resistance. By reading these essential works, we encourage critical thinking, open dialogue, and a deeper understanding of the values we must protect. In addition to our book club, we will provide resources to help members stay informed and get involved in local activism. We'll share information on local representatives, provide strategies for effective advocacy, and discuss ways to take action in our communities to resist injustice and oppression. Join us as we stand together, read critically, and fight for the future we believe in.

Triad Actioneers - Greater Triad Area NC
Our local group will connect people ready for action in our community who want to work with others to protect democracy on the local, state, and national levels. This Team will meet monthly to discuss relevant topics, share actions needed immediately, and rally our troops to take action. We welcome people to champion an issue, inform the group on it, and plan action for it. As interest grows in the Triad, we will host even larger gatherings to share information and most importantly, share ACTIONS needed to protect our local, state, and national democracy. With numerous battles being fought regarding topics important to human rights throughout the state of NC, Triad Actioneers formed in the Spring of 2023 to offer a central location for information sharing. Our members found it difficult to keep up with all of the information on each of the important topics. We now team up with other community groups to know how and when to take action for greater impact regarding a hot topic. To alleviate frustration and develop action that will make a positive change, a champion will bring current information and specific needed actions to each meeting regarding the following topics: Education School Budget School Vouchers BOE Updates Freedom to Parent Trans Initiatives Reproductive Health ...any other relevant topic that is key to defending democracy. Thank you for being a badass by wanting to take action to defend our democracy! We look forward to meeting you soon.
