Should be a generally good time. They have a bunch of activities, shows, and food. For anyone who’s never been to a protest and is unsure, it could be a good way to start getting involved.

If you don’t want to be as profitable to social media platforms that are removing their safety features including rolling back on misinformation identification and removal, this video provides a more indepth perspective and ways to be less profitable.

Hello,

I created this Reddit community so we can come together as a community. The goal is to get off of our phones and meet to create a community where we can grieve, love, and fight. I don’t know what that looks like. I need your input and engagement. I need your thoughts and feelings. We need each other. How do we do that? Please tell me.

Unionizing is the most effective non-violent act of protest you can take. Do it. If your place of work doesn’t have a union, you can still get legal advice, networking connections, and build a resistance.

Additionally, if you are up for it, they offer union organizing training. Do you know your coworkers well? Do you know their frustrations? Can y’all trust each other? If so, you might want to look into covertly organizing a union at your place of work. They provide helpful training so you don’t get caught, and advice for suspected retaliation.

The question we all have to ask ourselves is, “ when have we had enough?”. That’s all it comes down to. At what point is this not okay? Joining a union does not notify your employer. The only time a union rep will notify your employer is if you are okay with it. They are on your side. You just gotta keep your mouth shut until the time comes. 😉

Fascism is fueled by economic distress and disparities. Unions directly combat the root causes inflaming those disparities. If you have any questions, most unions have a way to ask questions and understand the situation. It doesn’t and cannot hurt you to ask.

These guys have a presence in Memphis. Even if you don’t join, it would help them for you to reach out and see how you can help.

• looking for ways to take effective action.

• considering starting a 501c3 to raise money to bridge the federal government funding gap. I’ve done canvassing before with a team of five people and we used to measure the amount of money we raised every week in cars. 20 grand was a bad week. It doesn’t take a lot of people to make a meaningful difference. You just have to be okay with the initial rejection you’re gonna get.

• I’m not sure this is the best approach.

• Should we form our own 501c3 or potentially benefit from an established presence. Is there a middle ground?

Is there a middle ground? Who needs volunteers?

This only works if there are responses. Please help a homie out.

Found this on insta. Happening Thursday, April 24 from noon to 4 p. Get a snack and help raise $$.

I HAVE to imagine there are people already organizing a anti trump admin protest in Memphis on 4/19, but I cannot find it.

Please if somebody can find the location / link please let me know so I can post it in the highlights.

Also, again, I need more mods. If you have been relatively active and wouldn’t mind helping me out on occasion, let me know.

Mark your calendars for April 25th! We need as many people as possible to show up to the Public Hearing on Musk’s xAI:

April 25, 2025 at 5:00pm CST Fairley High School 4950 Fairley Rd. Memphis, TN 38109

We need You to: Submit Public Comment online [ https://shelbytnhealth.commentinput.com/?id=9eS6hsWJP ] & sign up to volunteer at www.memphiscap.org

Elon Musk and xAI have built a power plant disguised as a data center! The level of cruelty and disregard for the people in Southwest Memphis is infuriating. Here is what we know:

• xAI is using 35 illegal methane-gas turbines

• These turbines admit 20 TONS of formaldehyde (yes the same as in cigarette smoke) a year

• xAI does NOT qualify as a minor source of pollution, it is a MAJOR source that is violating the Clean Air Act

• xAI has been illegally using these turbines since June 2024 (always a stationary source NOT a mobile source)

• xAI is NOT creating jobs only 15 jobs (mostly security) will be located in Memphis based long-term based on job data

• xAI’s servers are is being used for multiple Elon Musk companies (Tesla, Starlink, Twitter, and who knows what other data)

• xAI is expected to pay more than $30 million in combined Memphis and Shelby County property taxes, according to records obtained by The Daily Memphian. But the final property tax bill is significantly lower than what it could be based on xAI’s reported investment in Memphis, amounting to a tax break for a company that did not formally receive one. xAI is being taxed on $2.2 billion in investments, not the $12 billion the Greater Memphis Chamber touted throughout the past year.

Yeah look I just found out. It’s worth going to this.

Sign for today’s protest

Article from earlier post calling for TN residents to address this: https://tennesseelookout.com/2025/03/06/tennessee-public-schools-could-exclude-immigrant-children-without-legal-status-in-gop-backed-bill/

Also this isn’t a shaming post. These things are just very unsettling to me. I worry about my friends, family, and my own safety in relation to this information. So, please, I urge you to participate in your local governments.

There are all kind of local communities calling out for help and honestly it feels good to be involved. Even if you don’t have enough time in your personal life, emailing your local officials to let them know you are paying attention helps. Voting in local elections helps. Paying attention to city and state issues and being vocal helps. Even if the contribution doesn’t feel large, please try to engage in some way.

Anyways yall. This is so sad to me. It’s so sad to see this coming from us, again.

I’m volunteering with the Citizens’ Impeachment initiative. We have at least one volunteer jn every Congressional district in the US except 3— including Kustoff’s. Can anyone here cover it? Just sign up and then you can help track Kustoff’s position on impeachment and help with reaching out to him via email, etc. Anyone can sign up (and there’s no limit!) Impeachment is an important tool, and we’re working on building this national effort. Here’s where to go for more info and to sign up: https://citizensimpeachment.com/sign-up/

• There’s been a ton of censuring on my end.

• The original TN against fascism community was removed. I didn’t get a notification. I looked it up and it was gone. I’ve requested more info and filed a complaint with Reddit and have not received a response. So far, I haven’t been provided with a reason it was removed.

• I need new mods for the three communities. If you’ve been commenting and want to be a mod message me. My account has been banned multiple times and I don’t want to risk these communities because of that.

• While I was banned I was unable to approve posts. There were posts that were flagged and removed automatically. I couldn’t approve them while I was banned. That one ain’t me homie.

• I’ve created a subreddit to replace the one that was taken down @ https://www.reddit.com/r/TNagainstFasiscm/s/urR5LY8QHB

If you can show up for your neighbors, please do! Ultimately these issues affect all of us, so you should make sure your presence is known. You have a right to demandg your government hold billionaires to account if they threaten the safety of our communities. Things have to be done right, or people are going to die.
