A lot of this makes sense to me. For some reason 47 keeps forgetting that his grandfather came here to avoid serving in the war. And my grandfather was Native American. IMO I have more of a right to be here!

I am offering to support this sheltering initiative.

I am in a hot bed area of a red state.

Figure out a way to contact me anonymously.

I teach ESL students at a public high school and would love nothing more than to bring them all home with me. Even one would be better than none, but my sincere question is, would this really protect them? Aren't they still just as vulnerable the minute they step out the door?

Yes, they are safe only as long as they remain inside your home.

Fight Back

Don’t Spend 💰!

Vote With Your Wallet

The People's Union is organizing a 24 hour spending boycott on Friday, February 28.

WHAT NOT TO DO:

Do not make any purchases

Do not shop online, or in-store

No Amazon, No Walmart, No Best Buy

Nowhere!

Do not spend money on:

Fast Food

Gas

Major Retailers

Do not use Credit or Debit Cards for non-essential spending

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

Only buy essentials of absolutely necessary

(Food, Medicine, Emergency Supplies)

If you must spend, ONLY support small, local businesses.

SPREAD THE MESSAGE

Talk about it, post about it, and document your actions that day!

WHY THIS MATTERS!

~ Corporations and banks only care about their bottom line.

~ If we disrupt the economy for just ONE day, it sends a powerful message.

~ If they don't listen (they won’t) we make the next blackout longer (We will)

This is our first action.

This is how we make history.

February 28th, The 24 Hour Economic Black Out Begins.

Also promote the economic strike, blackout, whatever you choose to call it. Same rules of does & don’ts except this one they are also asking for no school, no work, no travel, & even (if possible) no internet for that one day. It’s #SHUTDOWN315

Mar 15 & then continue on with the boycotting of national chain, big box stores & restaurants indefinitely.

The different groups would be so much more effective if they would communicate & cooperate.
