Traveling Torch: Digital Nomads for Democracy
The Traveling Torch is a collective of digital nomads and modern adventurers dedicated to protecting and promoting democracy, justice, and freedom. Inspired by the spirit of Good Trouble, we follow in the footsteps of those who have fought for equality and liberty, using our voices, actions, and journeys to challenge injustice and ignite meaningful change. As torchbearers of democratic values, we travel across the nation to engage communities, amplify diverse stories, and build networks of hope and resistance. Wherever the road takes us, we stand united in lighting the way for a brighter, more just future.
