Join us this Thursday, 7/17 at 6pm in River's Edge to honor the legacy of John Lewis and his lifelong commitment to driving change through committed nonviolent resistance. We're hosting local organizations making good trouble to advance human rights, fight voter suppression, and directly serve the community. Senator Lewis's call to "release bitterness, hold only love" can be very hard in this moment, but loving our fellow humans enough to fight for change is the most meaningful struggle we can imagine. Join us!
On July 17 at 6 pm, let’s unleash our collective power to create a brighter future. ⭐️ We are the change-makers, the justice-seekers, and the hope-bringers. Join us in showing that #GoodTroubleLivesOn and let’s march towards a world that’s just and fair for all.
We’re really excited about this! Link in bio to learn more!
Save the date, more to come about making good trouble in Roanoke! Good Trouble Lives On is a national day of nonviolent action to respond to the attacks posed on our civil and human rights by the Trump administration and to remind them that in America, the power lies with the people. On July 17, the anniversary of Congressman John Lewis’s passing, we’re taking action across the country to defend our democracy and carry forward his legacy of Good Trouble. From voter suppression bills like the SAVE Act to the criminalization of protest, the Trump administration is launching a full-scale attack on our civil and human rights. But we know the truth: in America, the power lies with the people, and we’re rising to prove it. This is more than a protest; it’s a moral reckoning. A continuation of the movement Lewis helped lead, and a new front in the struggle for freedom. Please note: A core principle behind our Good Trouble Lives On actions is a commitment to nonviolence in all we do. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
There is SO MUCH wrong with the big bad bill, I mean choose your fighter: selling off public lands, logging vital old growth forests, sneaking in more unchecked presidential power, decimating reproductive care, the list goes on! When this bill heads back to the House, our reps need to know we are paying FULL attention to each way they vote against the people of SWVA and for corrupt corporate interests and tax aid to the richest of the rich.
