Events for May 13–26, 2025

🔥 We're moving fast. Here's how you can show up.

The next two weeks are packed. Protests. Book sales. Canvassing. Potlucks. Die-ins. Courtrooms. Yoga. Whether you're fighting disinformation, defending public institutions, or just showing up with love—there's a place for you. Pick one thing and plug in.

🚨 Woodstock Just Passed an Anti-Protest Ordinance

On the same day we submitted a revised event permit, Woodstock City Council passed sweeping new restrictions on public gatherings—including sidewalk protests.

We’ve issued a press release breaking down what happened, why it’s unconstitutional, and how it threatens all grassroots and community-led organizing:https://www.woodstockcan.com/post/woodstock-city-council-passes-anti-protest-ordinance-hours-after-grassroots-group-submits-revised-pe

🧭 Strategy & Policy

We’re tracking Project 2025, authoritarian moves, and local infrastructure. Join us May 19 to learn how Cherokee’s Democratic structure works—and how we can intervene.

⚖️ Government Accountability

We show up where decisions are made: school boards, city council, library funding. Come to the May 17 book sale and May 23 Cobb School Board meeting to show we’re watching.

🗳️ Voter Engagement

We’re canvassing, protecting the polls, and reaching new voters—especially Black voters and business owners in Cherokee County. Big push starts May 15.

🫶 Care & Coalition

We don’t burn out—we build community. Join us for yoga, a May 16 potluck, or the May 24 blood drive. No speeches, no pressure—just care.

📣 Comms & Creatives

Tell the truth, loudly and clearly. Come to the May 15 protest, the May 18 die-in, or help document what’s happening on the ground and online.

🧰 Events & Mobilization

We make it all run—permits, protests, logistics, safety, medics. If you want to help turn big ideas into action, this is your squad.

✝️ Faith, Freedom, & Moral Power

We fight Christian nationalism and build bridges with communities of faith—while making space for those who’ve been pushed out. This is moral work, not partisan work.

Pick something. Show up. Bring someone with you. That’s how movements grow—and how the people take back what was stolen.
