Hundreds of Ways to Resist this Week

Whether at home or from the state capitol, anyone can resist

This week, I’ve done a bit of digging and discovered several new-to-this-list trainings and volunteer opportunities. Take a moment and check them out.

Also, check out the highlight section to learn about Find a Protest, as well as the dates for upcoming, national protests.

Check out or add to my ever growing audio and visual diary at wethepeopledissent.net. Every day, I add new images. My hope is to encourage us today and create a resource for historians in years to come.

Happy Dissenting!

DISSENTER HIGHLIGHT

Recently, I had the honor of connecting with Find a Protest. For about a year, they have been posting protest locations. It is a fantastic platform with information on movements worldwide. I will begin linking them weekly, but hop on over and check them out.

NATIONWIDE ACTS OF RESISTANCE

June 6 | 50501 Veterans is standing with Veterans in DC and across the country. Join a local protest or meet in DC.

June 14 | Several organizations are coming together to host two events: No Kings and Kick Out the Clowns. Each has national backing, and I expect we will see crowds larger than April 5.

As always, I will follow these movements closely and send out details soon.
