If making NYE resolutions is your tradition, include resistance! There are hundreds of ways to focus on resistance, or to sneak it into things you already wanted to do. From “call Congress once a week” to looking for a better job, make resistance part of your thinking. We’ve got dozens of suggestions!
Micro-protest

Carry Cash
Wondering why Trump cancelled the penny? Resistance work relies on anonymous transactions—cash—and without the ability to make exact change, fewer people are using cash. Credit leaves a trail, and crypto is fueling the Trump family’s grift. Get and use cash. Accept you might not always get exact change—fascism is costing us more than a few pennies here and there!
Spill the Tea
Create tiny afternoon pick-me-ups to brighten someone’s day, and “spill the tea” on your favorite form of resistance. Write little encouraging notes or print a zine and tuck little bags of joy and resistance into public spaces. Spreading joy is resistance!
Support Public Media
NRP and PBS are in our hands now. Federal funding is gone, but hey, that just means the regime has no influence! Step up and help preserve the most independent media we still have! Replace a problematic channel with PBS Passport, or just buy a cool tote bag.

Expand your comfort zone
Do something outside your comfort zone today. Go to a protest, call your senator, or join a local group to learn more. Or do something that isn’t resistance related at all! Speak in public or invite someone to lunch. Practice courage and you’ll build courage!
