This is a great article on the little things we all can do to help grow the grassroots including sticker activism.

"Thirty lonely but beautiful actions you can take right now which probably won't magically catalyze a mass movement against Trump but that are still wildly important"

Why? Because others will see you do them, and it will make it easier for them to take their own (slightly less lonely but equally beautiful) action by your side

I will make a 🧵 to make sure that this info is in the fediverse.

#Jewish protesters flood #TrumpTower's lobby to demand the #ColumbiaUniversity #activist's release

by Cedar Attanasio, AP, 3/13/2025

New York — "Demonstrators from a Jewish group filled the lobby of #TrumpTower on Thursday to denounce the immigration arrest of #MahmoudKhalil, a #ProPalestinian activist who helped lead protests against #Israel at Columbia University.

"The demonstrators from Jewish Voice for Peace wore red shirts reading 'Jews say stop arming Israel' and held up banners as they chanted 'Bring Mahmoud home now!' on the lower level of the Fifth Avenue building's public atrium.

"After warning the protesters to leave, police said they arrested 98 people who stayed on various charges, including trespassing, obstruction and resisting arrest.

"Khalil, a 30-year-old permanent U.S. resident who is married to an American citizen and who hasn't been charged with breaking any laws, was arrested outside his New York City apartment Saturday and faces deportation. He's being held at an immigration detention center in Louisiana."

#Resist #Activist #Activism #Taxes #Thoreau
Post from Alt National Park Service

Since Congress's allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S.
citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying
federal taxes. If Donald Trump can override our elected officials' control of the
purse strings, we are effectively entering a period of taxation without
representation.
It's time for a modern-day Tea Party-let's throw the tea into the "Gulf of America."
We are working on a court case, and a tax strike may be legally possible.
Remember: no taxation without representation. We encourage other Americans to
bring cases against the government to set precedent. Let's start a federal tax
strike.

A Guide to Guides: Over 30 #Activist Guides You Might Find Helpful When Opposing the #FarRight

Date: January 27, 2025
Author: spencersunshine

"In my varied career, one thing I’ve done is write some organizing guides. The most (in)famous is my 40 Ways to Fight Fascists: Street-Legal Tactics for Community Activists, but I’ve done others about getting involved in activism for the first time, first responses to online harassment, and how to shut down fascist events at music and other venues.

"Of course I’ve looked at other guides, and so I’ve come up with a list of over 30 that are helpful when organizing against fascists—or being threatened by them. They will walk you through how to: organize communities to oppose the Far Right; document Far Right activity; confront their beliefs in schools and libraries; utilize digital security; and provide emergency medical care. I’ve also included some very brief thoughts on each."

The videos posted to Facebook all have the same look and feel: The subject looks directly at the camera, joins his hands in a sampeah – a #Cambodian gesture of respect – and apologizes.

Examples from last month – Cambodian #journalist Mech Dara and overseas #activist Hay Vanna – were just the latest additions to a long list of activists and #critics forced by #threats or legal action to recant and pledge their loyalty to the ruling #CambodianPeoplesParty (CPP).

Those are some of the most high-profile instances. Several other opposition activists told #RadioFreeAsia that they were forced to pledge allegiance to the ruling party to maintain the safety of their family or to avoid politically motivated criminal charges.

#Republicans Are Already Trying to Grant #Trump Dangerous Powers

Opinion by #HafizRashid
November 15, 2024

"House Republicans are trying to push through a bill that would give President-Elect #DonaldTrump powers as president to designate #nonprofit organizations as '#TerroristSupporting' even after it was seemingly defeated earlier this week.

"The Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act #HR9495 would allow the secretary of the treasury the ability to revoke any nonprofit organization’s tax-exempt status by branding it with a terrorism label. Earlier this week, the bill failed to receive the necessary two-thirds majority in the House to advance to the Senate.

"But on Monday, the House Rules Committee plans to hold a hearing that could set up a new vote on the bill, which initially had the support of all but one Republican and 52 Democrats. With the GOP only holding a seven seat majority in the chamber, they would need the support of more Democrats to advance the bill, which was introduced to combat #protests against #Israel’s war on #Gaza.

"Under any circumstances, the bill would threaten #FirstAmendment rights to #FreeSpeech, but after Trump’s election last week, there are now fears that the president-elect could use these new powers to crack down on his enemies with little recourse. Many #universities and #NewsOutlets are nonprofit organizations in addition to #activist groups.

"After the bill’s initial failure on Tuesday, the American Civil Liberties Union [#ACLU] celebrated the rejection of 'new broad and easily abused powers.'

"'The freedom to #dissent without fear of government retribution is a vital part of any well-functioning democracy, and now is not the time to grant the executive branch new powers to investigate and functionally shut down and silence its critics,' said Kia Hamadanchy, senior policy counsel for the ACLU, in a statement.

"Now, the bill could be given a retooling and sent up for a vote again, giving a president who has already threatened to use the #military against his critics even more sweeping powers. The question is if #Democrats will recognize the bill as granting dangerous powers to the presidency, or see it as a chance to clamp down on protesters they have tried to ignore at their peril for the past year.'"
