SUMMARY:Weekly Postcard Action Hours hosted by Indivisible Outer Cape
DESCRIPTION:Turn your political worries into positive actions and help flip the House and Senate in 2026! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn early 2026\, we are sending messages to voters highlighting the negative consequences of the Republican legislation and policies. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnd we are encouraging progressives to register and vote! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs we get closer to the election\, we will be getting out the vote. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease join us to write postcards at Wellfleet Preservation Hall every\, Friday morning 10:00-12:00. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is a great way to help Dems win\, preserve our democracy and enjoy some quality time with lovely like-minded activists. 🙂 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP for Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

SUMMARY:Resistance Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Our current presidential administration seems intent on erasing critical aspects of American history\, both historic injustice\, and the struggles for freedom and democracy that are parts of our past. Led by community member and friend of the store Bob Van Meter\, the Resistance Book Club will read works that tell important parts of that history.   \n\n\n\nThe book club will meet on the third Friday of the month at 10:30 AM here at the store. The first meeting will be on Friday\, February 20th\, and the book pick will be The Second Founding by Eric Foner. It’s a concise history of the adoption of the 13th\, 14th\, and 15th Amendments\, which Foner argues should be seen as a second founding of the nation.
