I finally moved over! My DMs are currently open - if you'd like to send me info about an April 5 protest in a small town, or something along those lines, feel free.

Talequah, OK, pop 16,833. ~40 protestors in the rain & cold weather. They endured some negative behavior from passersby BUT also got a lot of waves/honks—showing their neighbors how to stand up for democracy! #handsoff #handsoff2025 👏 to the local paper www.tahlequahdailypress.com/news/protest...

Tyngsboro, MA (pop 12,380) Gathering in nearby big (/small) cities is an important part of the movement. Some ppl can travel fairly easily; it makes sense for them (solidarity, bigger impact etc) OTOH Jackie shows the point of showing up locally. This matters! 👏👏 #handsoff #handsoff2025 #smalltown

Goshen, NY, pop. 5733 250 turned out on Sat. Not only is this an impressive 4.4% of the population, but @ymomof2.bsky.social put herself out there to organize & her neighbors showed up 10x what she expected. Let's give a shout-out to organizers like her who are so important! #handsoff #handsoff2025

Re-upping this third chunk of my thread because it's hard to see all of them under bluesky's format....many of the later posts are hidden unless you click a tiny link at the bottom (this time, the "more" link).... #handsoff #handsoff2025 So you can pick up here and see a whole bunch more...

Just wanted to repost the second chunk of my thread so that people don't stop when bluesky hides the rest of the thread under the tiny "Continue Reading" link that you have to click on. Check out these posts which are mostly the incredible communities in AK, though other ones interspersed as well..
