Cookies!
Nobody deserves a cookie for just doing the right thing…wait…what are we saying! Of course you deserve cookies! Buy your girl scout cookies from transgender or unhoused scouts for extra brownie points.
Minnesota
Today Minnesota strikes. You can support them by donating to one of the many mutual aid organizations. Or place an order online with a business that’s closed today, to help them make up the lost revenue.
General Strike
Minnesota is engaged in the largest general strike in eighty years, today. A General Strike takes organizing and preparation, and ICE’s brutality there has mobilized them to do that work. Click through to learn how general strikes work, and sign up for the national General Strike, called when we hit 3.5% of the population participating.
Free Whistles
Whistles can be 3D printed for pennies, and now there’s a group whose “lane” is sending hundreds or even thousands of free whistles to anyone who needs them. Volunteers have already distributed more than 127k whistles. Help fund their efforts, or contact them to fuel your own whistle packs.
Mass Action
Today’s the day! At 2pm, walk out of wherever you are. Pull your kids out of class. Join a protest, rally, or speech, or just leave the place you are. If you’re home, go to a store like Target, Home Depot or Walmart, put a box of salt in a cart, and then walk out at 2.
#CutTheFuel
If the U.S. is starting wars for oil again, we strike at the pump. Go fill up now, and on Thursday, January 8th, skip the pump. It’s the first of a series of gas-pump protests so #cutTheFuel and spread the word.
