Across the country, authoritarian forces are getting bolder and more dangerous. Trump and his allies are not hiding their agenda: mass deportations, rollbacks of civil rights, weaponized courts, and full-scale attacks on our democracy. We don’t have to wait until it’s too late. We can stop this. But it’ll take all of us—not just on single days of mass action, but through sustained organizing in our communities.
As part of preparing for ongoing demonstrations, Indivisible Lincoln Square is offering training in protest safety and de-escalation. The training will be led by Denise Poloyac of Indivisible Chicago.
