Indivisibles,
Yesterday, over seven million Americans joined the largest single-day
protest against tyranny in our nation’s history.
In 2,700 small towns and big cities, on street corners in the heart of
so-called “Trump country,” on overpasses and in historic plazas, people
rose up in defense of their neighbors, their rights, and their democracy.

It was joyful. It was peaceful. And it was patriotic. The Trump regime
tried to paint No Kings Day as a “hate America” protest, but what we saw
on display was the best of what this country is meant to be -- a nation
that refuses to succumb to intimidation, a people that fiercely defends
our freedoms and says in one voice, across generations, religions, races,
gender identities, and nations of origin: We are all Americans, and we
will not bow to kings.
Despite the threats and virulently un-American attempts to chill speech in
the days leading up to Saturday, our numbers only grew. Two million MORE
people hit the streets than in June. In Platte City, Missouri, No Kings
exploded from 20 protesters four months ago to 550 yesterday. Stories like
that poured in from every corner of the country.
Our pro-democracy movement is surging. Now it’s up to each of us to
channel this incredible energy into the organizing power it will take to
win.

Protests serve many purposes -- they change the narrative, they grow our
movement, they show people reeling under the weight of the regime’s
atrocities that they are not alone.
But a single day of protest -- even the largest single-day protest we’ve
seen in our lifetimes -- will not overcome the fascist onslaught we face.
It’s going to take ongoing, strategic organizing -- exactly the kind of
organizing Indivisible was created to foster -- to deliver us from
tyranny.

miss it.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
P.S. If you’d like to help support the momentous, essential work of
organizing all the new people who came into our pro-democracy coalition
today, [ [link removed] ]please consider chipping in.
