Truth Brigade Training
2026-01-26 18:00 - 19:30 | Winchester Public Library, 80 Washington St, Winchester, Massachusetts, 01890
Professional mediator Vanessa Linsey headlines Indivisible Winchester’s speaker series with a lively, interactive communication workshop. In this 90-minute session inspired by Indivisible’s “Truth Brigade,” attendees will learn positive approaches to political conversation at a time of unprecedented polarization and disinformation.

Attendees will understand how to recognize disinformation, when to engage (and when NOT to), and what they can do to change the dynamic through truthful, firm, and friendly conversation tactics. Attendees may role-play de-escalation, practice finding common ground, focus on fact sharing, experiment with “stop and think” questions, and try drafting social media comments. Staying composed during rapid response moments is easier said than done, and this hands-on session will prepare attendees to communicate effectively and positively.

About the presenter: Vanessa is a Cornell-trained family mediator who has logged many thousands of hours facilitating interpersonal conflict. Her engaging communication workshops feature mindfulness-based approaches to mutual understanding. Vanessa is a mother of several and author of a prescriptive memoir on mindfulness.

RSVP and Confirmation Required

Each packet of 15 postcards has everything you need, and costs $10 to cover stamps and cards for those who can afford it.

Or, you have the option to join us in the following action….

We hope to create as many origami birds as possible. Long considered a symbol of peace and hope, we plan to come together and deliver them to the nearest ice detention center on President’s Day, February 16, 2026.

Perhaps we’ll gather them in a garland to hang on a fence or from a tree. It won’t matter if there is one bird or an entire flock—the symbolism is the same: In these times of chaos and lack of empathy, where hatred is made acceptable, we will stand together for peace. We will stand for the love of one another. We will recognize the inherent worth of all of us, no matter from where we come. We will reaffirm that all people deserve to be treated with respect, justice, equity and compassion.

Solidarity Mobilizations Training: ICE Out of MN and Everywhere
2026-01-27 20:00 - 21:30
Ready to build the power we need to stop ICE everywhere?

Join SURJ and our immigrant partner organization, Solidarity Organizing Initiative, for a training on organizing locally and being ready if ICE comes to your community. No experience is necessary—anyone who wants to take practical steps to build neighborhood-level power is welcome.

We’ll share lessons from Minneapolis, where communities organized at the neighborhood level—parents coordinating school drop-off patrols, neighbors looking out for one another, and networks ready to mobilize when ICE showed up.

Minneapolis showed what’s possible when communities are organized and now we’ll explore how to start that same groundwork where you live.

Get Zoom Link

Step by step, we’ll explore how to get to know your neighbors, build trust, and prepare to act together if ICE comes to your town.

This call is for anyone and everyone, including if you:

took action to support Minnesota and wants to understand what comes next

are worried about ICE coming to your community and want to be prepared

are new to organizing and want clear, doable next steps

Showing Up For Racial Justice (SURJ) is the largest organization that explicitly organizes white people towards racial and economic justice – all are welcome to do our work with us. For more info, visit surj.org.

More Info & Email Updates

As far as we know, the Mall is continuing to restrict parking to mall shoppers only. We continue to invite you to be creative while we work on a solution to this problem. If you scroll down further, there are some suggested alternative parking possibilities.

There was a small group of counter-protesters again at the Saturday vigil, and we may expect to see counter-protesters more regularly now. The important thing is to not engage with counter-protesters. Please ignore them. We will continue to peacefully exercise our first amendment rights.

A weather reminder for our gatherings during the winter season — by default, we will plan to gather, and ask people to use their own judgment about what conditions are safe for them. Please do be safe. If Burlington schools close due to weather, we will cancel the usual 11am-1pm public gathering and the organizing team will make some other arrangement to safely maintain the continuity of our vigil for that day that does not require the general public.

As usual, this gathering outside ICE is a very targeted action; it’s not the venue for protesting other causes. We all care about many issues, but each Wednesday we come together across differences. Regardless of your views on any other political or social issues, if you support immigrants and their constitutional rights and are committed to nonviolence you are welcome to join us. We have a stash of signs and small U.S. flags that have been donated, and you’re welcome to bring your own signs and U.S. flags if you have them.

Here are some parking options that have been suggested, while we explore a resolution with the mall or other options:

For those looking to switch to public transportation, one option is the 350 Bus. This runs from Alewife to Burlington Mall Rd. You can park or bike to the Alewife T stop, and the bus leaves Alewife at 10:46am and arrives at District Ave. at 11:15am.

Alternatively, you can drive to Burlington and park at Simonds Park, at Rev. Andrew’s United Church of Christ (6 Lexington St. Burlington, MA), or at Rabbi Abramson’s Temple Shalom Emeth, 16 Lexington St.,and walk to the 350 bus stop at the intersection of Cambridge St. and Bedford St. That bus leaves at 11:09am and arrives at 11:17am. If you’d like to arrive before 11:00am, there’s a bus that leaves an hour earlier at 10:09am.

You can park at Wegmans. 53 Third Avenue. Burlington, MA 01803. The Lowell LRTA #14 bus goes by there and stops at Lexington and Mall Rd. That bus is free.

Bearing Witness attendees Tina & Jay continue to collect food pantry donations to help local immigrant families. You can drop off unopened food/health/household items by the tree.

Weather

All attendees are ultimately responsible for making their own decisions about travel. The organizers are going to use the following guidelines to modify or cancel events in advance. A sudden change in conditions just before or during events, such as a tornado warning or severe thunderstorm warning, could happen and organizers will do their best to communicate any decisions appropriately.

No change to event:Normal to heavy RainWindy, but no warningsLight snow on ground, but not falling

Cancel:Burlington schools cancelledTemp/Wind Chill < 20FStorm advisory with snow or high wind predictedFreezing rain falling or predicted

Shorten event in advance, limit to standout:Temp/Wind Chill < 30FTemp Ok, but ground wetDeep snow in grassy area, sidewalks clear

What happens at this ICE office?

ICE personnel depart from District Ave. in unmarked vans with tinted windows on missions to abduct immigrants across New England. Immigrants may also show up at the office for appointments. The facility on District Ave was never intended to be a detention center, yet immigration lawyers and media interviews reveal that people are now being housed here in conditions that have been called “abysmal” and “unsanitary.”

What to expect at Justice 4 All?

We are committed to nonviolence, and we stand peacefully with signs outside the facility. We do not block the entrance, we do not physically approach ICE agents as they walk to/from the parking lot, and we do not block traffic on District Ave.

Signs

This is a very targeted action outside the ICE facility, so it’s not the venue for protesting other causes. Even though we care deeply about other issues, while outside ICE we must remain focused on immigration.

Parking and other tips

For parking, please use the Macy’s overflow lot (75 Burlington Mall Road, follow signs for Macy’s, see map). For those with mobility challenges, please keep in mind that the lots closest to ICE — the FAA lot beside ICE and the BAE Systems lot directly across the street from ICE — have both been blocked off. There are restaurants nearby (Clover, Pressed Cafe, Chipotle) to get food and use the bathroom. Before arriving, please consider your own self-preservation (citizenship status) and self-care (sunscreen, hydration, etc.).

If you would like to receive updates on Justice4All Thursdays and reminders of our events, please add your email below to join our list. We’re excited to reinforce the work of our friends at Bearing Witness and to support our immigrant neighbors. We hope that you will join us.

See you in Burlington!
