Good Neighbors
Create relationships in your neighborhood. Do it formally through a neighborhood project, or take the next step with someone. Wave, borrow a cup of sugar and take back cookies, or invite them to dinner. Start slow and build.
Join Costco
Costco has re-asserted its commitment to DEI and fair pay repeatedly over the years. If bulk buys are too much, consider a mini co-op or donate spare units to a food bank. Click through for nuance.
Read a Book
Winter brings cozy weather for tea and reading. Order a couple of history or how-to books that will fuel your resistance, and make time to read them.
Protests that Count
There are multiple forms of protest, but today we’re going to talk about the BIG dates. These are the coordinated events nationwide where the key is visibility — and crowd numbers. Sign up for events like the October 18th No Kings! protest to help organizers report on attendance. If you live in a small place, register your event even if it’s only a dozen people. Report attendance to be counted in the whole!
