ICA Action: Chicago Marathon Visibility Brigade Sunday
Join us to publicize the Hands Off Chicago / No Kings rally and march during the Chicago Marathon on Sunday Oct 12th!
We will hold up Hands Off signs, at 3 locations along the marathon route. This will be a 2-hour action at each location where we will also hand out No Kings Oct 18th fliers and Hands Off Chicago placards.
👉 You will choose which location to join!
For the most impact we need 7 or more folks at each location. Let's make this the biggest rally and march yet on Oct 18th through this Visibility Brigade action!
ICA & Partner Action: Spread the Word for the No Kings! Rally and March
On October 18, Chicago will join millions across the country to deliver a bold message: Hands Off Chicago! We oppose Donald Trump’s escalating crackdown, where masked agents use brutal tactics to kidnap and imprison people seeking a better life, then deport them without due process. These acts of authoritarianism threaten our democracy and mirror actions of a dictator, not a president.
We are witnessing the rise of authoritarianism nationwide, from attacks on free speech to politically motivated indictments. This must stop. It is up to us—the people—to stand against this slide into autocracy.
Join us at Butler Field in Grant Park on Saturday, October 18 as part of the national No Kings movement. Let’s make our voices heard and fight for our rights. Your participation can help make this the largest mobilization in modern American history.
👉 Now...help us spread the word before October 18!
Print and hang a poster. Can you hang just one poster on a light pole or on a coffee shop bulletin board? Back in 2017, all it took was a Facebook event to build a movement. Times have changed; we need you to make this go viral. Download a poster here.
Tell a friend. Find the friend who rarely, or maybe never, has come to a protest and let them know that this time it’s different.
Forward this email. Make sure your entire friend group knows this is happening and makes plans now.
Chalk the sidewalk. Already we are seeing chalk messages advertising No Kings pop up on sidewalk corners. Find a corner and chalk a message with the date and location.
Share on social media. Promote this rally by posting, liking and re-posting on Instagram, BlueSky, Threads, and Facebook. Follow us and share!
Hold a poster making party. Gather your friends and make posters. This will help build excitement and create a sense of community around this event.
Indivisible Action: Virginia 2025: Phonebank
All eyes are on Virginia this November! Help Indivisible deliver wins for candidates who will put Virginia first, from the top of the ticket all the way down to the local school board!
Let’s flip the governor’s mansion, grow the Dem majority in the House of Delegates, and elect public school champions to our school boards.
We’ll be using Scale to Win, our easy-to-use calling tool, to connect with voters all across Virginia to remind them of the upcoming election and make sure they have a plan to vote. A short phonebanking training will be included at the beginning of the event.
👉 Join the phonebanks on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays!
