SUMMARY:May Day Standout
DESCRIPTION:Join Indivisible Maynard Area on Friday May 1 from 4:30-5:30 pm at Veterans Memorial Park in Maynard to stand with workers and unions. We are asking that folks recognize this day with no shopping\, no work\, and no school to bring attention to the corruption and greed that are attacking our values\, our freedoms\, and our livelihood. We are becoming both an oligarchy and a kleptocracy. Billionaires and corporate interests have been amassing more power. Our wealth gap has been growing on the backs of workers while our services have been dwindling. We need to stand up with a common voice to tell our government that they represent the people\, not corporations. \n\n\n\nTogether we demand: \n\n\n\n1) Billionaires pay their fair share of taxes so that our communities come first \n\n\n\n2) Funds be used to protect and strengthen Medicare\, Social Security\, and other public programs we rely on\, not to subsidize corporations and give tax breaks to the ultra wealthy \n\n\n\n3) Health care\, public schools\, and affordable housing be fully funded and accessible \n\n\n\n4) Elections represent the will of the people rather than corporate interests and the wealthy few. \n\n\n\n5) The protection of immigrants\, those with disabilities\, LGBTQ+ people\, communities of color\, and Native communities against bigoted\, discriminatory\, and dangerous policies. \n\n\n\n6) Workers earn a living wage. (Did you know in MA farm workers have a min. wage of only $8 per hour?!) \n\n\n\n\nRSVP for updates\n\n\n\n\nCome join us at Veterans Memorial Park from 4:30-5:30pm in Maynard #WorkersOverBillionaires \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:May Day - Boston
DESCRIPTION:The next major national action isn’t another protest – it’s flexing our collective economic and non-cooperation muscle. Earlier this year\, Minnesota residents organized a Day of Truth and Action\, where teachers\, faith leaders\, workers\, students\, and business leaders refused work\, school\, and shopping on a single Friday in January to send a powerful message of resistance to the actions of the Trump administration and its corporate enablers. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP and and get updates\n\n\n\n\nHere in MA\, actions are being organized by unions and immigrant groups. The focus will be on building local power\, protecting our neighbors\, strengthening our capacity for noncooperation\, and defending our elections from sabotage. There are already events being planned for Boston\, including a rally on the Common at 4:30 PM. As more Boston actions are finalized\, they will be posted HERE.

SUMMARY:Citizens Bank: Stop Financing ICE Prisons!
DESCRIPTION:eep the pressure on Citizens Bank to get out of the ICE business! \n\n\n\nCitizens TALKS a lot about valuing diversity and building strong communities. But they KEEP QUIET about how\, behind the scenes\, they are financing private prison companies to lock up ICE detainees under inhumane conditions. \n\n\n\nAfter their annual shareholders meeting\, the CEO was quoted as saying they MIGHT meet with the Greater Boston Interfaith Organization about this. A glimmer! Let’s keep pushing for concrete results! \n\n\n\nWe’ll stand out on the public sidewalk with signs and informational leaflets. We will urge Citizens Bank customers to contact local branch managers and the bank leadership in Providence\, RI with this message: because of Citizens’ investments in ICE\, I may close my account\, or I have already done so. \n\n\n\nWe will urge non-customers to express their anger to bank leadership\, and to also spread the word about the Citizens – ICE connection. \n\n\n\nOn May 2\, local folksinger Cooper Smithson will lead some easy songs about Citizens + ICE. \n\n\n\nPlease bring only signs specific to this Citizens Bank action\, such as: Citizens Bank: Stop Financing ICE Prisons! // ICE Cages Aren’t “Communities” // “Strengthen Our Communities”? Not with ICE Prisons! // Citizens Bank: Cut Ties With ICE. \n\n\n\nWe’ll have a few extra signs. Bring US flags too! \n\n\n\nDress for the weather. We will cancel only in case of extreme weather. Sign Up to receive event reminder and notice of any cancellation. \n\n\n\nBACKGROUND. Citizens Bank publicly presents itself as a community-centered institution committed to social responsibility. Yet the Bank continues to maintain key financial relationships with CoreCivic and The GEO Group\, two notorious\, for-profit\, prison corporations that build and operate immigration detention facilities for ICE\, provide transportation services to ICE\, and operate prisons for mass incarceration. \n\n\n\nFor more details about Citizens Bank’s relationship to the private prison system\, go to boycottcitizens.org \n\n\n\nThe action at Porter Square is led by Cambridge members of the De-ICE Citizens Bank Coalition comprising about 60 progressive organizations from over a dozen states in the eastern US (de-icecitizensbank.org/). \n\n\n\n\nRSVP for updates\n\n\n\n\nThe Cambridge group can be reached directly at ProtectingOurDemocracy76@gmail.com \n\n\n\nTHE ASK. The Coalition calls upon Citizens Bank to live up to its stated values by publicly committing to end its financial relationships with private prison and detention contractors. We stand out at the bank to send a clear message: corporations and financial institutions that enable harmful immigration and detention policies must be held accountable by the communities they claim to serve. \n\n\n\nA core principle behind all of these 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 and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind\, including those legally permitted\, should not be brought to events. Please do not block sidewalks\, business entrances\, or traffic.

SUMMARY:Citizens Bank: Stop Financing ICE Prisons!
DESCRIPTION:Protests began on January 24 with more than 40 standouts and 1000 people at Citizens Banks across the Northeast including Acton. Protests are now on-going. Keep the pressure on! Join our standout on May 16! \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 the country’s large for-profit prison and detention center builders and operators—CoreCivic and The GEO Group. 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\nSign up for Updates\n\n\n\n\nCustomers and non-customers alike! Help let people know about Citizens Bank’s involvement with ICE. Sign up and join the protest sponsored by the De-ICE Citizens Bank Coalition on Saturday\, May 16. \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 or any large print sign visible to passing cars. \n\n\n\nFor more information about Citizens Bank’s relationship to the private prison system\, go to boycottcitizens.org or contact the De-ICE Citizens Bank Coalition of activist organizations in Massachusetts\, Rhode Island\, and beyond at de.ICE.CitizensBank@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Signs of Fascism
DESCRIPTION:Twenty to forty volunteers will show drivers a sequence of twenty signs that show different symptoms of authoritarianism. In a bit of political theater\, each person stands grim-faced and still — no waving\, no smiling — in keeping with the seriousness of the charges. Sign-holders will be spaced well apart so drivers will have a moment to think about each sign before encountering the next. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpecial signs are provided. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSee an example here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/uYnibpua7tA \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganized by Brockton Indivisible (www.brocktonindivisible.org) \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.
