Starting on September 6th, we're taking over Washington DC. We will hold our ground and launch wave after wave of nonviolent civil disobedience demanding Trump be removed from office and that an agenda be advanced that heals the wounds of white supremacy. This is will be a sustained civil disobedience campaign, so bring what you need to stay.
We will provide mass housing for anyone coming to D.C. to support or participate in nonviolent direct action.
One of our principles is to maintain nonviolent discipline at all times. We'll hold daily nonviolent direct action trainings available to all and required for those committing civil disobedience and risking arrest.
check back soon for more details!

often. I have family still living there. When we were not with Dad at a Navel base we were in Virginia. I am very proud of my home place. When your Dad is in the military, you are not 'from' anywhere. Virginia is as close to a hometown as I have ever known.
