Last month, the Indivisible Chicago NW chapter held its first Queer Affinity gathering. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to make it a monthly gathering and connect with a different Indivisible Chicago chapter each month in order to build out our Queer community outreach.
For our December gathering, we're partnering with Indivisible Lincoln Square, and it'll also be our holiday gathering. We're meeting at a location in between Chicago's NW side and Lincoln Square, so it’s Albany Park!
We'll be meeting at Angelo's Wine Bar on Wednesday, December 17, from 6.30pm - 9pm, at 3026 W Montrose Ave. We hope to see you there!

As you may have heard, knocking on voters' doors and engaging them in one-on-one conversations is the single most effective way to win their vote. But maybe you're hesitant about canvassing. A lot of people are! Or, maybe it's been a while and you need a refresher or just have questions about how it works.
We show you what to expect; lead you through the process step-by-step; share tips accumulated over years of experience; and answer all your questions and concerns. And we bring friends from Chicago improv companies to add a little fun and a lot of communication savvy.

Resilience For Sustainable Activism

From Indivisible (national)
Would-be authoritarians love to flood the zone. Flooding the zone is a tactic used to move an aggressive agenda forward in so many directions, at the same time, that it becomes overwhelming. We are forced to fight back on too many horrific fronts, exhausting our spirits and making it impossible to focus.
It is important to understand that we are currently experiencing this tactic so that we can counteract its impacts.
At this call, we’ll learn how to regulate in real time while acknowledging that our responses are predictable and normal in the face of unyielding stress and trauma. You’ll leave with practical tools and strategies to help you stabilize and move through the stress from Nkem Ndefo.

Join ILS as we share how we can join with others to chip away at common societal “pillars” that support Trump (business, labor, faith, education, civil service, military/police), with the goal to pressure those pillars until that support breaks down.
A presentation on the pillars will be followed by talking with like-minded folk to see where our pillar-toppling power lies.
