SUMMARY:Double-Decker Activism Party: Whistle-Mania & Postcards
DESCRIPTION:We’re committed to ensuring our neighbors are prepared to protect themselves and each other\, know their rights should they come in contact with immigration authorities\, and are able to sound the alarm if they see a threat. AND we want Democrats to retake the House and maybe Senate in the Midterms to keep authoritarianism from expanding! \nAND we like homemade double-chocolate treats! \nJoin us for some community engagement writing news-boosting postcards AND assembling whistle kits: small bundles of important information and whistles. These kits are more than informational tools; they help build trust and start conversations in our community. Share in the joy of defying the forces that wish to silence\, oppress\, and divide us. \n“If you haven’t been to Whistle-Mania before\, I’d highly recommend it. It’s the ideal gathering for those of us who are a wee bit Type A because it gives you something to do with your hands and lets you feel satisfyingly productive while enjoying some lovely company.” \nPlease email JacksonHeightsIndivisible@gmail.com with any questions!
