As our nation speeds headlong towards a fascist state, like a drunk barreling the wrong way down the highway, individuals are asking, “What can I do in the face of such madness wielded by such powerful institutions?”
The answer is simple: do something – resist.
- Organize with your friends and neighbors (the people you feel comfortable and safe with).
- Reach out in solidarity to one person or one community who is more vulnerable than you.
- Donate or volunteer for the cause most important to you.
- Shake the hand of an immigrant and say, “thank you for being here.”
- Smile at someone from a different religion.
- March For Science in April, in DC or in the nearest city.
- Knit a hat (or twelve) for science, for endangered species, for climate change, for space exploration, for medical research, for teachers.
