Democracy demands more than silence
When the foundations of democracy are under attack, polite disagreement isn't enough. It's time to organize, resist, and rebuild.
001 — The Manifesto
This isn't about left vs. right. This is about authoritarianism vs. democracy. About truth vs. propaganda. About who we want to be.
The erosion of democratic norms doesn't happen overnight—it happens when good people stay silent. Every unchallenged lie, every normalized cruelty, every shrug of "that's just politics" is a small surrender.
In an age of weaponized disinformation, defending truth is an act of resistance. We fact-check. We document. We remember. The historical record will not be written by those who would erase it.
Authoritarianism always targets the marginalized first—immigrants, LGBTQ+ communities, religious minorities, the press. An attack on any of us is an attack on all of us. Solidarity isn't optional.
While federal dysfunction dominates headlines, your city council, school board, and state legislature are making decisions that directly impact your life. Show up. Run. Win.
002 — Take Action
Resistance isn't just marching—it's showing up every day, in every way you can. Here's where to start.
Phone calls still work. Five minutes can change a vote. We'll give you the scripts and the numbers.
