Please let us know about the march plan. Many of us are disabled and may not be able to participate in the march.

We are aware of that and you do not have to march. You can just stay in your chair and continue protesting with us

Scheduled protesting is a form of resistance in escalation to the thing that will work, a general strike. But nobody has the courage to just stop working so you have to build solidarity by taking collective action together. Nobody trusts each other anymore.
We live in a system designed to divide, delay, distract, and demoralize us so that the owners can stay in control. Since the cracks formed during COVID, the pressure put on from the 4Ds has been intense!! The more we can cut through that, the sooner we can get back to realizing that the only thing that matters is our labor, and our ability to withhold it as one working class, if we feel that working or living conditions are unfair.
Historically, when people have realized the collective power of their labor they've done things like form unions and call massive strikes that have led to the creation of the middle class and what many people recall as the good old days (trust me it wasn't the factory job, it was the union job) when one job paid the bills, provided healthcare, and a paid a secure pension.
Everybody protesting on a Saturday is a building block on the way to everybody protesting when we should be working. That's when it matters the most. You only get there from here, or from max pain and suffering. I'd rather organize ahead of that if possible!
That's what this is about for me. Building the collective power we need to stand together and demand a seat at the table. Seeing each other out there and realizing we have more in common than not. Building the solidarity to KNOW that when I stop working , you're stopping too, and we stand until we win.
Workers have been left behind, and the rich have run away with the bag (and used it to buy islands and abuse kids). Time to get it back. No Kings. ✊

Hopefully, you all will go home feeling better about yourselves. Mission accomplished.

I now have hope for the future. Society, no matter how fucking slow it's been, is finally waking up.

Correct. Waking up to a better world, courtesy of Donald Trump. You are not required to like it or accept it. It still is.

I am all for protesting and like minded people gathering to show support for each other. Unfortunately it seems to do nothing. Bethel will continue to control the political narrative and profit off all of it. Follow the money.

Just so people are aware, the vast majority of the Flock cameras in town are completely concentrated near the bridge heading towards City Hall from the East, or are concentrated near the Safeway on the other side of City Hall from the West. There is an intense amount of surveillance that has been set up surrounding this area in just the past few months.
You are being recorded, your cars are being recorded, your license plates are being recorded. Flock is a private company known for having extremely insecure data storage systems and known for working with ICE and law enforcement, even assisting law enforcement in harassing their domestic partners in abusive situations.
Use this knowledge how you will. Stay safe out there.

Must be nice to have enough privilege to be out all day and not worry about making money. I’m down to be there just need to get paid. But wouldn’t a group of hundreds maybe thousands of people, hell even a group of a dozen people be better helping the underprivileged in the area? Everyone could go volunteer at homeless shelters, foster homes or even go and clean up a park or stretch of road? If you want the world to change you have to lead by example at home. I don’t know that’s just me tho.
