SUMMARY:Walkout for our Freedoms
DESCRIPTION:2025 was a year of marches that proved our collective strength. And the threats have grown so we must too. The MAGA Regime has already signaled that a second term means a deeper and more open wave of misogyny\, racism\, xenophobia\, and violence than the first. This moment calls for escalated commitment from our movement. \nOn January 20 at 2 PM local time\, we will walk out of work\, school\, and commerce because a Free America begins the moment we stop cooperating with fascism. \nWe walk away from fascism.\nWe walk towards a Free America.\nWe fight for a future that belongs to us all.\nEverybody in\, nobody out.\n \nFor updates & resources: Free America
