The Real Majority Holyoke
*NEW GROUP*Holyoke, MA: Please join The Real Majority Holyoke to talk about ways to create appropriate avenues of community building and solidarity in the face of a constitutional crisis. We think any local movement in Holyoke needs to directly reflect the concerns of the community, especially our most disenfranchised and marginalized residents. It is important to acknowledge that many in our predominately Puerto Rican city have been oppressed by both parties. It is perhaps more important to recognize the level of risk is multiplied for most of our community. When they come for our neighbors, STAND UP FIGHT BACK. It is necessary to organize an opposition to the actions of the current administration which is local to our city but also is careful to avoid further harm to our neighborhoods. This page and group are not affiliated with any political party. Our cause is the equitable realization of those basic rights promised at the founding of our nation and resistance to further oppression.

Dark Skies for Democracy (Northern Arizona)
In Arizona, sometimes it’s a challenge to connect with like-minded folks politically and morally. The erosion of integrity and ethics in American politics and the rise of corruption at the highest levels is cause for alarm. There is a plethora of restrictive, nonsensical decisions being made by hateful, racist groups that will and are affecting many members of our nation. Currently, white Christian nationalism is driving many of these policies and legislation, ignoring our Constitutions clearly stated doctrine outlining the Separation of Church and State. Any religious ideology specifically designed to control and suppress entire groups of people against their will is wrong and unconstitutional. The targets have become; women’s rights, human rights in general (LGBTQIA+), immigrants rights (esp. here in AZ), book banning, school committees, voting rights, local elections, the environment, and more. This group will share information, have regular meetings, brainstorm ideas of protest, and educate ourselves and others. An important component of this group will be ways in which WE can learn how to communicate our message about the threats to our democratic freedoms to those who are not truly understanding what is happening in our country. I live near Sedona, AZ which is a Dark Sky Community, hence the name. I hope you'll give this group a try. Let's build something truly strong and beautiful... together!

Misses On A Mission
Our mission will be to band together to fight against law-makers and government officials who are trying to take away our liberties and freedoms. In order to counter measures taken by the government to infringe upon our rights, we will do outreach, educate our community, protest, and otherwise spread the word in our region about our mission and about the dangers of allowing the government to take away our freedom and rights. We will also work to educate our communities about the importance of voting. We will help people register to vote, find their polling location, and help them determine who they want to vote for. We will door-knock, postcard, and hold two seasonal cookouts with a DJ, bounce houses, local vendors/businesses selling and giving away goodies, a raffle, face painting, and USA, voting, LGBTQ+, and local/regional themed craft tables.
