SUMMARY:Citizens Bank: Stop Financing ICE Prisons (Arlington Center)
DESCRIPTION:Protests began on January 24 with more than 40 standouts and 1000 people at Citizens Banks across the northeast. On March 7\, there were 70 standouts along the eastern seaboard. On June 6\, the most recent coordinated standouts\, there were more than 140 events in 15 states in the eastern U.S. and California. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’re keeping the pressure on! Sign up and join this protest sponsored by Indivisible LAB—Lexngton\, Arlington\, Bedford\, and Beyond. Address available upon registration. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCitizens Bank claims it’s dedicated to fostering strong communities. Yet it provides hundreds of millions of dollars in financial support and services to CoreCivic and The GEO Group—the country’s large for-profit prison and detention center builders and operators. While other US banks have pulled out of the business\, Citizens Bank has deepened its ties with the big winners in ICE’s war on immigrants. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you choose to\, bring a sign with a message such as Citizens Banks: Stop Financing ICE Prisons! Citizens Bank: Get Out of ICE Business! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’ll have signs and handouts available. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor information about Citizens Bank’s relationship to the private prison system and the Not With Our Money\, Citizens! campaign go to www.de-icecitizensbank.org/.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP for Details and Updates\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:Block by Block - Phone Bank with SURJ! (Win Primaries for Progressive Champions in MI & MN!)
DESCRIPTION:Come phone bank with SURJ!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are now in a decisive phase of the fight against authoritarianism\, the threat is real and the stakes are high. And people are fighting back. Millions have protested\, and we’ve watched powerful organizing coming out of Minneapolis\, Chicago\, and other cities that have borne the brunt of ICE’s assaults on our communities. Mass anger exists\, but mass organization does not yet exist at the scale needed to win. Movements become real when they reach millions: organized\, trained\, and acting together. \n\n\n\nCome take action with SURJ! We’ll be calling voters about primary races working to elect progressive champions in key states and districts to ultimately take back BOTH the House and Senate this November. These races include: \n\n\n\n\nWill Lawrence\, who is an organizer and coalition-builder with experience speaking truth to power and getting results at the local\, state and federal level running to represent Michigan Congressional District 7 in Lansing.\n\n\n\nKaela Berg\, who is an organizer\, flight attendant\, union leader with AFA/CWA\, and a Minnesota State Representative. She has worked up to three jobs\, bought groceries from the dollar store to feed her family\, and lived without health insurance during a global pandemic and she is now running to represent Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional District with an economic populist message. \n\n\n\n\nCome as you are! No experience needed! Full training & lots of support included! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCandidate Schedule:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLawrence for MI Congressional District 7 – 6/25\, 7/16\, 7/25\, 8/1\, 8/2\, 8/4\n\n\n\nBerg for MN Congressional District 2 – 6/18\, 8/8\, 8/9\, 8/11\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLogistics:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese phone banks are online on the Zoom platform. Log into the call on Zoom on your computer and bring your phone to make the calls (if you only have one device\, still come!).\n\n\n\nWe have a robust training on the call to give you all the information you need — a script\, technical support\, and coaching throughout.\n\n\n\nReturners can start early.\n\n\n\nYou will receive an email with orientation materials ahead of time.\n\n\n\nPlease note the time zone for call time.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeeling Unsure?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur model works – learn from the best! Our phonebanks have one of the highest rates of success in the country. No matter whether you’re brand new caller or a seasoned organizer\, if you join our banks\, you can trust that you are putting your effort into a method that works. And you’ll get to learn powerful organizing skills from seasoned leaders!\n\n\n\nOur conversations are based on open-ended questions and deep listening. You do not need to be an expert on the issues or a candidate – our phone banks are successful because we deeply connect with voters and make them feel heard.\n\n\n\nWant to hear what a phonebank is like? Check out this video interviewing SURJ phonebankers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContext:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs Trump and republicans defund the social safety net and peddle more racist lies\, millions of people are increasingly feeling the effects of the billionaire agenda. We know this fight is on multiple fronts\, and this fall we have an opportunity to harness the energy of the streets and rising resentment towards November’s elections – to not only wrest power from MAGA\, but to put candidates in office who are willing to stand up to Trump and fight for working class people. BOTH the House AND Senate are in play for Democrats to take back control and this year we aim to put progressive working class champions in a position to WIN. \n\n\n\nFor the last six years\, SURJ’s phone banking program has grown to be one of the strongest in the country\, reaching millions of working class people with our vision of finding our shared interest in standing alongside people of color and rejecting white supremacy. This year is an opportunity to deliver strategic blows to the MAGA agenda and throw down a gauntlet to force the Democratic Party to reckon with true progressive\, working class fighters. \n\n\n\nTo do this\, we’re focusing on key House districts in California and New York between April and June in addition to a critical Senate race in Maine. In July and August we will shift focus to primaries for key House districts in Minnesota and Michigan. \n\n\n\nThese races will affect millions of working class people this year. Our work on Primary races this spring and summer will set us up to add more progressive champions to the halls of congress and take back power this November. We will continue to build power to stop MAGA\, by supporting unapologetically progressive working class champions. Alongside our partners across the country\, this is the time for our movements to offer a bold vision and bring our people into it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout SURJ:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShowing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ) is the largest organization in the country that explicitly organizes white communities for justice. Instead of choosing racism\, silence\, or complicity\, we help white communities choose justice. We have thousands of national members and 150+ chapters across the US and Canada. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP for Updates\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.
