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.

Twisted ReSisters
We are a nonpartisan group in SE MN dedicated to bringing together and supporting women in our community that believe in democracy and the rule of law. We are currently in very turbulent times with daily assaults on life as we know it. We believe diversity strengthens us. We believe the government should protect our people and our lands. We wish to educate ourselves and other with facts, research and science. We will collaborate with individuals and groups to create a grassroots movement so our voices will be heard as we fight tyranny and support each other!

Bonfire - Charlotte
Bonfire brings people together in real-world spaces, to grow, learn, and spark change — together, in person. We’re building community right in your backyard, with events and gatherings that offer opportunities for personal, professional, and political engagement and fulfillment. If you are looking for connection and joy, seeking inspiration or have some to share, we have a seat by our fire for you! Bonfire was created for women of all ages and backgrounds, but is not exclusive to women. Created in partnership with Red Wine & Blue’s TroubleNation, Bonfire groups are local communities led by volunteer organizers who want to bring people together where they live. TroubleNation provides the tools, training, and support to help these groups grow and thrive — while keeping community building at the center. The goal of the Charlotte Bonfire is to create community and joy in Charlotte, North Carolina! We meet on the third Wednesday of every month and look forward to growing our community and joyful connections across this beautiful city. If you are interested in exploring Charlotte, volunteering, participating in a book club, hearing from speakers, and meeting amazing people, please join us! Everyone is welcome!
