We Are Trouble
Have you been trying to figure out how to do more to fight extremism, or you’re looking to be part of a like-minded community of troublemakers? Do you want a place to laugh, complain freely about politics, drink wine (or your favorite beverage of choice), and connect with like-minded people? Then you are in the right place! We Are Trouble will help you find other members in Centre County who share your frustration with the rise of extremism in this community. Yes — they do exist! Even if you feel alone, we guarantee, you are not! And guess what — it will be fun! It's fun to DO something to help create meaningful, lasting change. You don't have to identify as an “activist”, and you don't have to attend formally structured meetings. Join We Are Trouble to become informed, share your experiences in a social setting, and work with others who share your values to protect democracy on the local, state and national level.
