Okay, folks – you’ve been asking “What can I do to fight back?”

HERE is your opportunity!

Multiple groups have joined with Indivisible to put together a nationwide day of action and mobilization called “Hands Off!” – and it is THIS COMING SATURDAY. Volunteers have stepped up to host in their cities, and thousands have already signed up. (Including me!)

There are 11 events already scheduled across Kentucky. All of them are listed in our new Activism Calendar (which you should check each week). To save you some clicks, though, here are all the events in the state along with links to the page with details where you can sign up.

Also, please check the “One other thing” at the bottom of this page.

One other thing

I need pictures! If you attend one of these, please take some pics to send me:

  • The overall crowd
  • Any interesting signs or sights
  • The speakers

If you take pics of individuals (either signs or candids or the speakers), be sure to let them know you are sending me the picture AND get their name so I can identify them in the cutline. You can either email me the pics, or put them on a cloud service and send me the link. Thanks!
