ANNOUNCEMENTS

Press Release

ADVOCACY

Join

As we witness a barrage of assaults on our democratic processes, institutions, and values, it’s not surprising that many people feel overwhelmed and even frightened. Common reactions to these feelings are fight, flight, freeze, or fawn: 

  • Flight: Some people will avoid or minimize any political engagement; 
  • Freeze: Others feel so overwhelmed and powerless they will shut down, unable to do anything; 
  • Fawn: Fear may drive others to appease or give in to those in power; or  
  • Fight: We must fight back! Anti-democratic actors want us to feel defeated in order to make us compliant and/or immobile. Instead, everyone must commit to doing their part in defense of our democracy.

When we collectively rise up and challenge those in power, we make a difference. That includes you — because you have a voice. You have power.
