Practical lessons from the remarkable ongoing resistance in Minnesota. Indivisibles,
The Trump regime's brutal occupation of Minnesota has been historic both in its scope, and in the fierceness of Minnesotans' opposition.
On February 12, 7pm ET/4pm PT, Indivisible will join partner organizations in hosting “Resist and Reimagine: Lessons from MN on Fighting Authoritarianism.” Organizers, community members, and Reps. Ilhan Omar and Pramila Jayapal will share practical lessons we can take from the ongoing resistance in the Twin Cities as we all work to protect our own communities.
In every corner of the state, from every walk of life and political persuasion, often in sub-zero weather and with little more than whistles and phones, Minnesotans have stood against tear gas, pepper spray, and the killing of two of their own. Their shared dedication to protecting the rights and safety of all has been breathtaking, transforming crisis into action and tragedy into solidarity.
Starting with the occupation of Los Angeles and on through Washington, DC, Memphis, Chicago, New Orleans, and Portland, we've all been learning from each other. Now, in Minnesota, long-time and first-time activists are building a wealth of lived knowledge that historians, activists, and professional organizers will study closely for decades.

On February 12, we'll get actionable lessons on organizing in moments of crisis, corporate pressure tactics, rapid response, and nonviolent community defense from the awe-inspiring practitioners doing this work day in, day out in Minnesota.
We hope to see you there!
In solidarity, Indivisible Team
