An event is being put together for a stand-out along route one from Topsfield to Newburyport. The goal is to get enough people on both sides along the road to create a chain of solidarity of people fighting for our freedoms.
This is a great opportunity for our neighboring communities to come together for this fight. Although we are separated by zip codes, we are all fighting the same fight and need to come together – power in numbers. I also remind people that courage is contagious and we are seeing that in the weekly protests in our cities and towns where a growing number of powerful people are out there telling others that the actions of this current administration are not okay.
The Route One Stand-out is now officially on Mobilize to sign-up: https://www.mobilize.us/massdems/event/782099/
