Happy Tuesday, Activists!
We hope you had a great weekend. This week we have more rallies to tell you about and a new, new meeting in person. We hope to see you there!
PRACTICING SELF CARE AS A FORM OF RESISTANCE
Feeling isolated and overwhelmed by the cruelty and chaos of the current administration? This is not a side effect. It’s their intention. Your Indivisible community is here to help!Come connect to your community of like-minded peaceful democracy warriors for this 60-90 minute interactive Zoom meeting.
We will be joined by resiliency and wellness educators. Learn effective methods and strategies for staying centered, strong and positive for the duration of the fight. Practicing self-care is an act of resistance!
When: Next Monday, March 24 at 7:00 pm Where: Zoom
WHERE WE GO FROM HERE
Join us - in person! - to hear about our plans for this year, how we all can push back against the Trump/Musk agenda and push forward to success in this year's elections and beyond. Sign up here.
Join us on Thursday March 27 at 5pm to hear about our plans for this year and beyond and where you can take action. You'll also hear from Kellan White, Vice President, Groundwork Strategies. He'll explain where we are and where we should be in local and national politics.
Kellan is a third generation Philadelphia political insider - the son of John White, Jr., former City Council member. But don’t let that fool you. He knows Philadelphia’s people and institutions, and he knows what’s wrong and how to make them better. He’s served on many nonprofits involved in leadership and making our city better. As Senior Advisor for the Harris Campaign and simultaneously advising Senator Casey’s reelection campaign, he understands better than most the failures of the Democratic Party and how to correct them. One Philadelphia politician said of him: “He can be likeable, but also very tough.” See more in this Philadelphia Citizen profile.
Kellan’s intelligence and political savvy is highly respected - he’s been called the “millennial door opener” by the Philadelphia Citizen -- a nod to his ability to bring people together for the common good. A realist with ideals we share is someone we should hear from. So, join us to learn what we don’t know, and what we must do now.
When: Thursday, March 27, 5:00 pm Where: The Ethical Society, 1906 Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia

LEAFLET PHILLY!
Are you looking for a fun, easy way to increase voter engagement across Philadelphia (and maybe burn off some of that anxiety we are all feeling)? We've got the project for you — and we are so excited about it! Every month we'll be leafleting Philly — with the goal of every home, all across the city.Here's how it works. Each month we will design a door hanger with a simple, timely and compelling message for our neighbors. The door hangers will link Republicans to the chaos and misery they create and show Philadelphians how they can take action — with the ultimate goal of increasing voter turnout over the next four years! Sign up here.You are the key to this project's success. The more volunteer leaflet distributors we have, the more neighbors we can reach. You'll get 100 door hangers to simply hang on every door up and down the block. It’s quick and easy — no knocking, no lists, just leave the leaflet on the door and stroll on to the next one! You pick the day that’s most convenient for you and repeat a month later.We should have the door hangers ready to distribute in the first week of April, so sign up now so you can be in the first group for this new project!
MAKE CALLS TO WISCONSIN VOTERS
On April 1, control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court is up for grabs. This is one of the most important elections of 2025 -- and not just for Wisconsinites. If conservatives win a majority, they will entrench the state’s gerrymander and get the final say in voting rights cases in the crucial swing state. That’s why Elon Musk is pouring millions of dollars into the race.
Wisconsin Indivisibles are already helping to get out every last vote for Indivisible's endorsed candidate, Judge Susan Crawford. You can make calls to help!
Indivisible has six phonebanks to help turn out the vote.
