Resist!
Another DUer recommended the link below. If you scroll down, it's a long, long list of non-violent things you can do to resist. Every action adds up. I have about 10 yard signs & every day I put a different one out & cycle through them. About six weeks ago I was discouraged & thought what good does this tiny bit do, & two days later I found a note in my front door that said, "Thank you for putting your signs out every day. It gives me hope." A couple weeks ago someone mailed me $20 with a note that said, "Love your signs! We want to pitch in!" It doesn't seem like much but sometimes people just need to know they aren't alone in the way they feel.
Some good ideas here! https://commonslibrary.org/198-methods-of-nonviolent-action
Here's a place to look for like-minded activist groups in your area: https://indivisible.org

I reply "No. No, it isn't. This is the sign of a nation in distress. OUR nation is in distress."
(Great illustration in your post, by the way.)

(23,997 posts)indivisible meeting a few nights ago... important stuff!!!
I'm pretty isolated where I am (home in Vermont, but sort of living and working in Maryland) and I asked if ICE had been in the community.... hadn't heard anything on news or from neighbors.... oh boy, did I hear stories.... we ALL need to go to these meetings and encourage as many people as we can to do the same... we are in this together and it is going to take ALL OF US

(40,904 posts)I vaguely remember that image, unfortunately, I lost a ton of images recently with a computer SNAFU.
I don't tell my IRL political friend about DU either, but I'm sure some of them are here, even though I haven't a clue what their DU identity is. It's just they know about stuff at the same time I do & I got it here.
