Believe it or not, building community — whether it's your church, mosque, a knitting group, your dinner circle — is far more transformative than you realize.
If you don't know your neighbor, it's time to know your neighbor.
If you have a co-worker you think you're cool with, it's time to get to know that person.
It's time to get to know the people we will be relying on to protect each other.
It may seem frivolous, but I guarantee you it's not: creating community around you is one of the most powerful and radical things you can do in an environment like this.
Sometimes even just being in community with people who are not like-minded with you — is a very odd little thing that can help change their mind.
We have no choice but to live in the times that we live in, and to make it better one day at a time, one choice at a time.
Never, ever think that any choice or act of yours is too small. It isn't.
Regimes and autocracies are taken down by millions of drops of small actions that would otherwise be invisible by masses of people.
This is the assignment that we have ahead of us. I look forward to doing this work with you all.
In solidarity,
Alexandria
Our main project now is to unite the working class in this country against a fascist agenda. Period.
