Ark Valley Good Trouble Visibility & Community Bui

Ark Valley Good Trouble Visibility & Community Building Event! In Salida, we will be meeting at Centennial Park July 17th at 5:30 pm, establishing our purpose, and then lining Hwy. 50 until 6:30. Then we invite everyone to stay and picnic in the park to build community among ourselves. Bring your own signs and picnic dinner.

Coined by civil rights leader Congressman John Lewis, “Good Trouble” is the action of coming together to take peaceful, non-violent action to challenge injustice and create meaningful change.

The civil rights leaders of the past have shown us the power of collective action. That’s why on July 17, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, communities across the country will take to the streets, courthouses, and community spaces to carry forward his fight for justice, voting rights, and dignity for all.

Happy Independence Day weekend from your friends a

Today on Juneteenth, we commemorate the ending of slavery in the United States, and fully recognize our fight for equality is an ongoing struggle to ensure that all individuals are treated with fairness and have equal rights and opportunities, regardless of their background, identity, or other characteristics. This includes fighting against discrimination and prejudice based on factors like race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and socioeconomic status.

1st amendment right to peacefully protest #nokings

1st amendment right to peacefully protest #nokings day today was held to counter a military parade hosted by Trump in Washington DC, and in solidarity with protests in Los Angeles and elsewhere over Trump’s deployments of the National Guard .

To be very clear this is a violation of section 12406 which states: federalizing the state national guard “ shall be issued through the state governors”. Newsom did NOT consent. A president has not activated the National Guard over a governor’s objection since 1965, when President Lyndon B. Johnson deployed the guard to protect civil rights marchers from Selma to Montgomery without the consent of Alabama Gov. George Wallace. 📝

The military parade on Saturday evening, also Trump's birthday, was timed to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the US Army. He warned that any protests at the parade would be met with "heavy force". Which again is another violation of our constitution and right to peacefully protest.

“America is not strong because of our President, but because of our people” - @senadamschiff. We are Chaffee County strong 🇺🇸 Thank you all for your time and energy.
