The groups are grassroots and locally controlled. An effective local group will address local issues and the ones the participants want to address. Look around—if your local group doesn’t fit, another will. Or you can start your own.
@ezralevin.bsky.social please read. The time is now for us to rise up, make our voices heard. If this was happening in any other country the citizens would be doing much more.
Attended a rally in Memphis where about 40-50 people gathered at City Hall. Weather was crap so the rally didn’t last long. We exchanged phone numbers. Indivisible Memphis plans to unite with Indivisible 901 and several other groups are planning to unite for more effective resistance.
We had our STATE OF EMERGENCY meeting today at FOX HQ. We love our NY Indivisible groups & all the new 50501 folks, always outraged and always showing up 🔥

Attended a meeting of sorts myself. We are Marching in Denver! Well organized, speakers intelligent, empathetic and a good source of local activism. Thank you 50501 Colorado organizers.
For some reason no one thought we had work to do during 2021-2024. We can’t let that happen after we win it back in 2028. The other side doesn’t take a break, they are planning for the long term and we need to do the same.
That seems to have coincidentally happened right after Nov. 2024. Too bad. Resisting Biden’s expansion of the U.S. police state, or his funding of and support for a genocide would have made it harder for Trump to capitalize on those fascist policies and expand them.
Is Indivisible going to back a #GeneralStrike? We need to learn what worked in the past, here and abroad. These one-day piecemeal protests aren't going to achieve shit. THIS IS A COUP!
Interesting. However, I think there's only about a 50% chance that there will even be midterm elections. trump is moving much faster than any resistance I've seen so far.
While I’m afraid what you are saying is right, I think we have to protest and fight for our country. Something has to change now. The country is on fire now! We can’t wait until mid terms. There won’t be anything left by then.
Might seem silly but I’ll never support the group solely because of the name Indivisible. I think the idea that The Union is indivisible is just as stupid as suggesting the two parties are the same. This country is only united because of modern complexities and no other reason.
There’s could be a certain subversive pleasure in using the tools of the tech bro oligarchy to bring down the tech bro oligarchy though. Just be cautious how you set up your account & don’t allow yourself to be baited into clicking through on rage bait or data mining posts.
I just tried to contact my newly formed local Indivisible group and discovered that they’re using Gmail as the only point of contact. I’m not going to put my personal information into Google and I don’t know how else to reach them!
my experience is the best way to organize is in person. The tech tools used to communicate in between meetings and actions is a challenge different groups solve in different ways - discords, whatsapp, facebook, signal, slack, etc. I have yet to see something that works for every group.
Personally I think it’s time to also go a little ‘old school’. Look to past resistance-leaflet(sorry climate-for now); radio; books-via code; underground mvmt-think outside the box-not just digital. How can we organize offline and be effective, prepared, and real. Communication and community!
I'm working on a website that I plant to try and scrap event data from all different sources to try and help people find events near them from *all* the different orgs.
We'll see how it works out, gonna take some time to build out
We'll see how it goes. Scrapping sites like Facebook is hard but doable due to all the protects they put in place. Gonna take sometime but my long term hope is figuring out ways for folks to find their local groups and hopefully encourage long term engagement instead of just during major outrage
Please help to distribute information about the @standupforscience.bsky.social event to @indivisible.org groups. Lots of opportunities for local groups to get involved and help to support science around the country on March 7

Late Show tonight!
Following the SOTU
Address tonight!
#PeteButtigieg #LateShow #StephenColbert #USDemocracy
Heads up: it's not a State of the Union address. That happens a year after the POTUS takes office. This is just him addressing congress; it's meant as a way to lay out the plans for the coming year, but we know it will be full of lies & gobblygook because it's Trump.
Can't bring myself to watch the Orange Skidmark's lies on the television tonight. 🤮 So, I'm watching Creedence Clearwater Revival on PBS, and my favorite tune tonight is “Fortunate Son”❣️🇺🇲
We need to make sure we can maintain this energy last the outrage. Much of what got us here was weak progressive communities when there isn't outrage.
Responding with protests is important, but consistent engagement *all year* and *every year* is what we need if we wanna turn this ship around
We can't rely on them at this point. I have voted for them all my life and still will. And especially us millinialls need to think about running for office as dems. But we need to do our organizing locally in the ways that Unions did in the past, with union halls and the like
Nice!
Working with my local group to start doing regular fun / community building events, not just protests so we can sustain this past outrage.
If it is successful I hope to pitch it as a blueprint for other groups!
New local group in Georgetown County, SC this month (coastal area). It took off like a rocket. Also got coverage in the local media for its first meeting. The group's name is Indigo Indivisible.
3 Groups are inside the US gov. working together to destroy it. They will soon start fighting as they try to build a new government.
Each has a different vision for the future:
I went to attend a local meeting and they were over capacity and people were sitting in their cars live streaming it on facebook. I’m no longer on FB so I was out of luck.
The national Indivisible organization requires local affiliates to have an email address, so you could find out what that is and get on their email list. Then you would be kept up to date on activities in your area. 👍
Hey Ezra, I attempted to register a group here in Petersburg, AK about a month ago. I’ve emailed twice to see if something else is needed, but I haven’t heard back. My email is [email protected], and the email I registered for the group is [email protected]. Can you help?
400 protesters in our Maine village of 1,700. More than 36,000 views on Facebook. Comments of thanks and support coming in from Canada, Sweden, Spain, and Ukraine.
You are all spectacular✨️

this time around, make sure we have candidates everywhere for everything. Montana just keeps making me sad and sending people like Rep Jane Gilette to women's and children's committees for ALEC/NRA.
Watch this y'all, and know that the Manhattan Institute wants to remove early interventions for the kids who don't meet all of the metrics.

Maybe ask a friend who is on Facebook to Search for your local organization and get the email address for you from the local Indivisible group's "About" page.
It's a closed group. I have no local friends who can access it.
Why not have an easy way for people not on fb to connect with a local group? An email link on the listing and I'd already be involved...
Kinda hard to find them at the state capital protests. And without Facebook I don't know about local protests - which is why I want to get in contact with a local group...
One way to deal w/the Facebook challenge is 2 start your own Indivisible group.
It's ok & actually encouraged to have more than one Indivisible group in a local area if your "local group" doesn't meet your needs. You can start a non-Facebook group. I did & it is working well for us. https://Indivisible.org
I’m from Snohomish County Indivisible in Washington state. Our group has quadrupled in size, spun off two satellite groups, have requests to start two more, and requests from 3 nearby areas to help them get started.
We stand together as Americans.
Ezra, I want to get involved with indivisible. I have been having difficulty finding information about meetings (for west LA). Can you provide a short explanation how the group(s) are set up and how we can connect with those nearby or know which online events would benefit us. Thank you so much.
Suggest focus now on confronting Rs, calling on D LEADERSHIP Jeffries & Schumer to be 💪 & encourage folks to find & support lcl community groups affected by DJT & work w them on spreading word abt the damage & electing better lcl officials in 2025.
I'll be out in communities all over the state this year and next talking to people. Hopefully I get a chance to talk to you about the positions I'll be running on and can earn your support.
One new one in my town although I think it was officially started in late February. First meeting tomorrow is already booked over capacity for the meeting room 🥳
As good as this is, please everyone just have the mindset “we need to do more” because we do. We absolutely need to all be doing more. This country is being torn apart roots and all. As bad as anyone thinks it is, please please just realize behind closed doors, it is so, so much worse.
I cannot stress the danger of the situation not only the United States but the world is in. Please do not let up the calls, protest, submitting complaints, boycotting, leaving bad reviews, filing lawsuits, making&hanging signs, spreading Truth and doing anything and everything to fight.
Even if you are not American, please fight because the U.S. on its own is a lot than capable of being a threat. Just assume that the U.S. is team Putin at this point though. Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, Taiwan, France, UK, Germany, etc. are all under threat by the current fraud government.
Not only are our economies intertwined globally, the U.S. is a military might like no other! Add Putin into the mix and the U.S. becomes an extremely dangerous force to anyone who opposes it including the American people.
Just to be clear, Trump got less than half of the eligible vote even with the interference and otherwise. The authority of the United States government resides first and foremost with the American people. This is clearly outlined in our Constitution and is the principle the government was founded on
What does that mean? It means this administration has actively harmed the American people and bypassed laws and tradition to do so whilst colluding with a hostile foreign entity being Russia.
I went to my first Indivisible meeting for my district Sunday along with 70 people in attendance in A HOUSE and was out protesting today with them in Portland Oregon! Can't wait for the first virtual meeting with you and Leah.
Seems like there's only one in my state and the website is messed up. I don't think there's anything happening. Yes I know that I could start one myself, but I just don't have the spoons. I'll stick with some other groups for local action.
Our group in Rockford, IL is terrible. in 2016 2017 there was many involved now there are only a few and the administration doesn't plan events. Terrible terrible.
This! Check online to see your nearest Indivisible group. If you don’t have one in your town, start one! It will give you a new sense of agency in a time when many of us feel powerless to fight the fight we have to fight.
@ezrakleinbot.bsky.social are there any new groups that formed in Gwinnett County, Gerorgia [Duluth, Lawrenceville, Snellville, Suwanee] I'm a volunteer with the Gwinnett County Democratic Party of Georgia and discussed if there was a local Indivisible in our area we can collaborate with
Yeah but it wants a ton of your information to get there the closest one to me only shows a FB page not useful to those of us who are boycotting and have deleted all things meta from our lives
We don’t. I had started to draw together a group of New Hampshire people on Bluesky, but then we got hit by the flu here at the house. I think having an indivisible team in state would be amazing.
Had a meeting last night in a red community and about 100 people attended. It’s Spring Break for our local university and lots of people responded that they couldn’t make this one but are committed! 🥳
What an excellent opportunity for travelers to tell each other about the existence of this effort in person, so valuable, even if they get into it after what is expected to be a vacation!
You are all spectacular✨️

I was at the rally in Dover DE. There were a couple of hundred of us. Even the police officers that were there were in support. More people than the rally on Feb 17 and more "young" people.
Does Huntsville AL have one? If not I want to start one. I want to have a town hall here. We are ground zero for nasa and alot of “DEI” cuts. We have HUGE amount of govt workers and contractors and space x as well

It's a coup. By a criminal cabal.
I am less than 50% sure they will be secure or free.
Don’t try, and we have none.

I know that's hard to accomplish but I think it would be healthy long term
We'll see how it works out, gonna take some time to build out
I now thinking I should just help them out a bit since they seem to be trying to accomplish the same thing
If most of the biggest orgs moved to using this and then federated their servers, it would do most of this by itself
