Our
Good Trouble Teach-In is taking place of
our monthly General Meeting, but
fear not! We will be
back in August to share
successes from our Summer of Action
and prepare for Midterms
ahead!
The
fight to protect voting rights never
ends, and right now, we’re witnessing a
Jim-Crow-era effort from politicians and
their billionaire friends to restrict
our freedoms, silence our voices, and
consolidate power.
But
in America, we choose our leaders. We
will decide our future. The same spirit
that fueled Selma, Montgomery, and the
March on Washington lives on in our
unified action.
Six
years after the passing of Congressman
Lewis, NE Lake County
Indivisible is organizing several
Good Trouble events in our
community to carry the torch, continue
the legacy of John Lewis, and pass it
forward to future generations.
Please
join us at any or all of our July Good
Trouble events, as National Indivisible
calls us to “Teach,
Reach, and Preach” in honor of John
Lewis.
In place of our regular monthly General
Meeting on Thursday 7/23 at 7pm in
Gurnee, we will be hosting a
Good Trouble Teach-In. An
abridged presentation of the documentary
“John Lewis: Good Trouble” will be viewed,
followed by a facilitated discussion that
will leave participants feeling equipped,
empowered, and inspired. 🎬
Wishing we were doing another rally? Join
our Visibility Brigade to share the Good
Trouble message at Duffy Overpass in
Riverwoods. Join on
Saturday 7/18 at 4pm, Sunday 7/19 at
10am, or both! This effort is a
fun, effective, and exciting way to REACH
people, reminding them of our country in
distress and inspiring action. 📣
Join our Outreach and Election Teams on
Saturday 7/18 at 12pm in Grayslake
as they come together for a
Postcard and Whistle Kit Party!
Postcard messaging will PREACH the
importance of “Get Out the Vote” and Whistle
Kits empower the community to know their
rights. 📬
