Everyone deserves dignity —with access to housing, healthcare, and education.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive — regardless of age, race, sex, sexual preference, preferred pronouns, religion, or employment status.

Everyone deserves safety—clean air and water, and communities free from gun violence.

But our freedoms, rights, and opportunities are under attack. This is not the time to sit on the sidelines.

1) Seek out community. “They want you to be alone. Nobody is going to fix this alone. That’s not how this works.” That’s from the famed historian of tyranny Timothy Snyder. The quote resonated so much with us, it leads a chapter of the new Indivisible guide: https://indivisible.org/resource/guide

2) Build something local. For the time being, we still live in a representative democracy. That means your elected officials at the local, state, and federal levels still wake up every morning worrying about what their constituents think. And that gives you power — if you organize and apply it. 

If you’re wondering where to get started, https://indivisible.org/resource/guide

3) Connect with those under threat. Trump has promised to be a dictator on day one, to go after immigrant families, trans kids, and other marginalized communities. The Project 2025 agenda is a divide and conquer gameplan — pick us off one-by-one as they dismantle our democracy and hand the federal government over to their billionaire buddies. But their strategy has an Achilles’ Heel — it doesn’t work if we stick together.

In the most poetically unjust coincidence in recent memory, Inauguration Day falls on MLK Day this year. Well, MLK Day is traditionally a day of service, and we’re encouraging Indivisible groups across the country to use that day to connect with their own communities. It’s a good chance for all of us to do the most basic work of democracy: connecting with our fellow Americans where we live together.

Watch this newsletter for the Northwest Valley Indivisible Day of Service announcement.

4) Support your independent media and social media. We need to engage, trumpet, and support journalists with a pro-democracy bias — whether independent actors or embattled fighters for truth in compromised institutions. And we need platforms for communicating the truth and with each other. And there are easy steps you can take. When it comes to media, identify the journalist you trust and like, and amplify them (or, if they’re independent, start signing up and paying for their work).

5) Have fun. I’m serious. Fascism is frightening. But self-flagellating judgment or descending into despair are not gonna help us. Our power is in our numbers, which means we have to create welcoming, fun, caring, impactful communities for folks to join.

We’ve all been processing and coping with the aftermath of the elections. Some people tell you it’s over, some people tell you it’s going to be OK and some people don’t just tell you it’s going to be OK, they stay by your side until it actually is. Those are your people.

Northwest Valley Indivisible members are your people. We took time to rest and reset and are now gearing up to resist in 2025.

Join us for our reorganization meeting January 9th. Come meet the influx of new members who are eager to join us in fighting Trumpism 2.0. We have a new Indivisible playbook, new focus and new opportunities. Come share in the conversation – we’ve got lots of work to do – together.

CEBV Happy Hours 

CEBV is taking a hard, realistic look at the 2025 landscape, and will be adapting in ways that ask a bit more of us, and of you. The good news is that this choose-your-adventure opportunity will give each of us a chance to reconnect, revitalize, and truly make a difference in lots of different ways.

Interested? We’ll explain it all in our first Happy Hour of 2025, on January 12 at 4:00 pm.

Every week during the AZ Legislative session: we provide thoughtful and perceptive insights on issues, legislation, and state & local politics. We also invite excellent speakers who broaden our understanding of how it all works and what we can do to actively engage with our government.
