Hello, I’m popping in with three quick items:
- Update: on Saturday, Zippy and I drove to another Washington community to participate in their Tesla Takedown picket attended by about 170 people with signs and flags and a fierce determination to help crash Tesla stock. I’m told it’s a pretty conservative community but the majority of responses from people driving past were positive: lots of honking, waving, thumbs-up, and peace signs. Spirits were high among the sign-wavers and there was spontaneous laughter each time one of those seriously ugly cyber trucks drove past. I felt even more invigorated by the time we left. PLEASE share your experience if you were able to attend a Tesla Takedown picket near you! (Remember: these pickets are ongoing so it’s not too late to participate.)
- This Saturday, April 5th, is another National Day of Action as people around the country come together to say HANDS OFF! From Indivisible:
Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They’re taking everything they can get their hands on, and daring the world to stop them. On Saturday, April 5th, we’re taking to the streets nationwide to fight back with a clear message: Hands off! Go HERE to find an April 5th action near you.
- Lastly, please take 10 minutes for John Lithgow’s reading of “20 Lessons On Tyranny” which is based on authoritarianism expert Timothy Snyder’s book, On Tyranny. Very good information to help keep us sharp in these perilous times.
Thank you for reading and engaging. Solidarity! ✊🏾
