This weekend, demonstrations in every county on either March 1st (most counties) or March 2nd (Kennebec)

We will try to put the details for each protest in replies to this post.

Mass Meeting of The Audacity in Rockland

Saturday, March 1, 2025

345 Broadway Rockland, ME, 04841

Mass Meeting at the First Universalist Church, 345 Broadway, Rockland ME 04841.

During the Civil Rights Movement, meetings were held right before actions, and we'll follow that lead. Our in-person mass meetings are essential not only to move people into action, not only to get people connected to planning, but also to get new ideas rolling into the thick of things. Everything that The Audacity is doing happened because somebody said "someone ought to," and then somebody signed up to work on it. If you've got an idea, bring it to the meeting. If enough people jump on board to organize your idea and it fits within our mission, it'll happen -- grassroots democracy in action.

@AIF_Massachusetts TY for posting these events. I need to re-activate my BS account, but this is my home here. I'm hoping more folks migrate to the Fediverse.
@DoomsdaysCW Yeah, we hope for more migration too. Happy to be able to connect people to these events though. We love to see our Maine neighbors fired up!!
@AIF_Massachusetts Me too! I just figured out my BS, so now I can follow Pine Tree Activism and figure out my schedule! So much going on!
