One Million Rising: Strategic Non-Cooperation to Fight Authoritarianism · Indivisible
Across the country, authoritarian forces are getting bolder and more dangerous. Trump and his allies are not hiding their agenda: mass deportations, rollbacks of civil rights, weaponized courts, and full-scale attacks on our democracy. We don’t have to wait until it’s too late. We can stop this. But it’ll take all of us—not just on single days of mass action, but through sustained organizing in our communities. That’s why this summer, we’re launching One Million Rising—a national effort to train one million people in the strategic logic and practice of non-cooperation, as well as the basics of community organizing and campaign design. This is how we build people power that can’t be ignored. You’re invited to join us—and lead. Let’s build a force bigger than fear and louder than hate. Let’s get ready. Let’s get organized. Let’s stop Trump. **Session 1: The Moment & Your Mission - July 16**
Get oriented to making meaning of this moment and the role you can play in coordinated strategic action. **Session 2: How to Make it Happen - July 30** Learn not just our strategy, but how you can lead a discussion with others and get them on board with taking action in your community. You’ll host your first community resistance gathering after this session, before our next session. **Session 3: What Now? - August 13**
You’ll be onboarded to basic campaign design and learn how to implement it locally as well as get plugged into our next national campaign work. Your second community resistance gathering will move this action forward. Sign up for all 3 sessions to get the most out of this experience. Watch it live with a friend in person, and get ready now to host your own community resistance gatherings after the second and third sessions. This is how we get to 1 million!

- Our resident artist, Sinn, will paint your items live with bold "No Kings" text and imagery in black/gold/white! Bring old shirts, hats, flags, or signs for customization. Cash donations accepted to fund larger NKW projects.
We'll close with "This Land Is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie—the first song we sang together at a NO KINGS rally, including the verses they didn't teach in school.
Hope to see you tomorrow and Thursday, July 17th 4-5 pm.
In solidarity,
Your NO KINGS Westfield working team
