Together We Are Strong

We are Waltham residents who believe in preserving and strengthening American democracy. We are coming together and taking action to prevent the dismantling of our country by people and groups pushing an authoritarian vision of America.

If we all do a little bit, we can accomplish a lot.

Now is not the time to sit and ask what’s going to happen; now is the time to create what’s going to happen. And we might have a very different future if all of us do that.

-Heather Cox Richardson

Events

In Waltham

Sat. June 28 11:00am-12:30pm | Bigger than Dobbs

Join us in a peaceful rally on the Waltham Common to mark the 3rd anniversary of the Dobbs decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and 5 months of Republicans’ efforts to roll back women’s rights in line with Project 2025. This is a critical moment for the rights of women and girls in this country. Join us to stand up for reproductive freedom and show that the public does not support the GOP’s escalating war on women!

Sign up to attend here.

Thurs. July 17, 5:30-7pm | Good Trouble Lives On!

Join us on the anniversary of Congressman John Lewis’ passing to defend our democracy and carry forward his legacy of Good Trouble. Good Trouble Lives On will be a national day of nonviolent action to respond to the attacks posed on our civil and human rights by the Trump administration and to remind them that in America, the power lies with the people.

Call Members of Congress to oppose Trump’s Budget: The Five Calls app or website makes it easy to call your congresspeople. They have scripts and tips, so anyone can do it! https://5calls.org/ This Indivisible website also has resources to Stop the Cuts proposed in Trump’s budget.

Oppose the No Contempt Clause: Tell your members of Congress to reject dangerous legislation that strips Congress of its ability to enforce subpoenas and erodes Constitutional checks and balances. https://act.standupamerica.com/letters/letter-no-contempt-clause/

Vote with your Dollars: Boycotts and protests at Tesla dealerships nationwide are already having an impact. https://www.teslatakedown.com/. We can expand to boycott the major advertisers on Fox News, a key pillar of the Trump Administration’s propaganda machine.

50501 is a national organization working to support coordinated non-violent protest events, with a MA group here: https://www.mass50501.com

DONATE TO INDIVISIBLE WALTHAM

Support our efforts to protect democracy and the rule of law.

One of the most important things we can do to resist authoritarian intimidation is to show up — to demonstrate to others that ordinary people like them understand that things are not normal, not okay, and not acceptable. This “social proof” gives more folks — inside and outside the government — the courage to resist.
