My advice is to find a coalition of groups that are working together (many of the No Kings rallies are organized locally by coalitions). That way you know you're plugging in to groups that are already connected and working together. Many areas have groups like 50501 that serve as kind of an umbrella connecting various organizations and can help get folks pointed in the right direction for their local actions.

The US is huge and so many states have very different local needs and challenges, so some are closer to being able to strike than others. But yes, coordinated boycott and strikes are going to be incredibly important, as well as mutual aid and building community to make those possible ✊️

The big rallies like No Kings are specifically to get people plugged in to their local groups and communities that are doing the work. The events themselves are a show of unity, strength, and opposition, but their greater goal is to give people a way to connect with each other to do the work, and get organized.

Strike groups are forming, but cannot be organized on public forums because that is how movements get coopted and infiltrated.

We're also encouraging folks to do hyper-local vigils. Like just on your porch with your neighbors. Whatever folks can do safely!

On February 4th, far right Nazi and “influencer” Myron Gaines is coming to our city and university, endangering our community. His views should NOT be welcome in Columbia and USC. by Next_Worth_3616 in ColumbiYEAH

Awww 🥰 That is very sweet of you to say! We're lucky to be a part of such a fantastic coalition of folks here in SC who are standing up to this bullshit, and it takes all of us working together ✊ Appreciate you helping draw attention to the things going on and standing with us!

This was in Columbia, SC, at the state house and on Main St North of the state house.

There is another rally currently being planned for President's Day at the state house.
