Our Indivisible group actually did stuff - postcard parties (to mail or hand-deliver to our local & state reps), sign-waving at big intersections, arranging occasional meetings with local elected leaders, neighborhood door-knocking to promote candidates AND getting out the vote, even hosting a booth at local carnivals to hand out informational leaflets and meet people, encouraging voting and new members - that sort of thing.
