One Million Rising

Strategic Non-Cooperation to Fight Authoritarianism

We are in the period where a would-be authoritarian (Trump) attempts to rapidly consolidate power, eliminate checks on that power, and operate with impunity. This moment is referred to as an authoritarian breakthrough. Right now, that looks like Trump deploying the military in LA, firing thousands of qualified federal employees, exponentially increasing the budget of ICE, and so much more.

The important thing to remember: This isn’t new or unique to the United States, which means we know the winning tactics from other moments in our history and from across the globe, and that’s what we’ll use to take it back.

The key to stopping any momentum toward authoritarianism isn’t to attack the would-be ruler at the top, but to chip away at the vital institutions and communities that uphold their power, causing the entire house of cards to come tumbling down.

Join us for this important event. Grab a beer, make some new friends, and join the movement to save our democracy.
