(1,568 posts)confidence in a home basement. We are organizing to make sure our family members are correctly registered to vote in the mid-terms, identifying Gen-Z graduates who need to know and understand the political ropes, getting volunteers to tutor kids in civics and teaching them about the history of WWII. We are also strategizing on how to operate safely through the GOP political waters so as to protect ourselves from discriminatory corporate practices. Some have suggested working to get more funds to ACLU and identifying other legal resources to help those of us in crisis. The group of 11 is small, but they came up with some really good ideas on how not to comply in advance. Two people have volunteered to re-read project 2025 and to focus attention on areas that might be easier to fight or resist legally. We were not all in agreement on tactics but we all agreed on continuing our meetings and enlarging our group. We also identified a number of businesses in our area to either support or not support depending on what we know about the owners' support of the fascist state and its leader. Our main focus is on becoming a resource for ourselves and those who are most vulnerable in our community.
BTW, eggs are not a part of our grocery lists for price and health reasons. Of the people attending the meeting, I was the only one who knew about DU. I look for about 10 new members within the next month. Ages ranged from about 35 - 72
