[Please note: all fundraising drives must support registered non-profits (check here: apps.irs.gov/app/eos). If the organization isn’t listed, please ask admin]. Common Beliefs: In this community, we believe: - All People Are Equal - Diversity Makes Us Stronger - Black Lives Matter - No Human Is Illegal - Science Is Real - Women’s Rights Are Human Rights - Climate Change Is a Crisis - Water Is Life - Love Is Love - Kindness Is Everything - People and Planet Over Profit - We Can Make a Difference “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” (Margaret Mead)

Your Liberal Mom Friend - Robinson Twp/Montour
We are a brand new (nonpartisan but left leaning) progressive group of activist Robinson residents and Montour parents resisting the fascist regime. Focusing on staying informed and making Good trouble with noncompliance and noncooperation. This group is hyper localized so we can work together to keep an eye on our Montour school board, local representatives and local government, keeping far right extremists out of Robinson, Kennedy, Ingram, Pennsbury Village, Thornburg, Forest Grove, Groveton, and everywhere in between. We want you to join even if you're not into politics, it's about providing safety in numbers and building community.

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.
