Visibility CLT Pop-up Protest - Tesla in Matthews · Mobilize
NEVER FORGET MUSK'S DAMAGE: The many will defeat the money! Authoritarians thrive when we are overwhelmed, shut down and afraid to act- so we add joy to the resistance! It’s the most fun you’ll have standing up for our freedoms, our families and our future!
- Guidelines for participants:
- Where is it? https://maps.app.goo.gl/AAX8RkvLm1k4j3Rm9
- ICLT is committed to nonviolent action, and we expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with us. Signs and chants must not incite violence.
- We are welcoming, safe, non-violent, and committed to building community as we oppose this corrupt, incompetent regime. We don’t verbally challenge Tesla customers or disrespect drivers or counter protesters. We don’t block driveways. Our joy is contagious and powerful.
- Parking will be TIGHT. There is NO parking at Tesla. dealership. Park where you feel comfortable. NOTE: do NOT park in the Boston Market lot even though it is closed.
- One parking location might be the CATS Park and Ride just south of Boston Market. Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/nLwhi5cFjxsf6H7R6
- NOTE: We DO NOT have explicit permission to park in any business's lot.
- DO NOT park and walk across 74 not at a crosswalk. This is unsafe.
