Lake County Liberty Lovers
We believe that community means looking out for one another—no matter who you are or where you come from. In a time where new government policies, ICE detentions, and deportations are impacting our friends and family, we refuse to look away. We stand firmly in the belief that every human being is equal and that democracy only works when we protect each other. Do you want to lend a hand? This is the place for you. Let’s prove that "neighbor" is a verb. Join us in making sure no one stands alone. Creemos que la comunidad significa cuidarse unos a otros, sin importar quiénes sean o de dónde vengan. En un momento en que las nuevas políticas gubernamentales, las detenciones de ICE y las deportaciones están afectando a nuestros amigos y familiares, nos negamos a mirar hacia otro lado. Creemos firmemente que todos los seres humanos son iguales y que la democracia solo funciona cuando nos protegemos mutuamente. ¿Quieres echar una mano? Este es el lugar para ti. Únete a nosotros para asegurarnos de que nadie se quede solo.

Cup of Sugar
Cup of Sugar exists to create small, durable rooms of attention where care, dignity, and relationship can be practiced under civic fracture and climate disruption, without scale, spectacle, or extraction. Citizenship, here, is practiced quietly—in decency, responsibility, and shared life. Cup of Sugar begins with a familiar gesture: borrowing something small from a neighbor. Not an argument. Not a program. Just attention. We offer brief reflections on everyday American life—moments of care, repair, and response that sustain democracy long before policies or positions take shape. In conjunction with Cup of Sugar, I began writing a publication titled NOTICINGS, which arises from living under civic fracture and climate disruption. NOTICINGS quietly rejects the idea that democracy or repair is a solo act, or that constant breaking-news outrage can sustain either. Democracy endures through shared attention to what is essential for care, safety, and dignity. To read more, please visit: https://gotcupofsugar.substack.com/
