INDIVISIBLE: A Practical Guide for Resisting the Trump Agenda
A note from Writers Resist about The Indivisible Guide:
Donald Trump’s election has motivated a lot of people in a lot of ways, revealing their smarts, their generosity and their passion for making the United States a safe and nurturing home for all people. One of the more pragmatic responses is Indivisible: A Practical Guide for Resisting the Trump Agenda. The guide is cool, not only because it’s free and fabulous, but because the Indivisible team that put it together is a group of seasoned former congressional staffers who know exactly how to get our representatives’ attention. They tell you, in simple terms, the tricks of the advocacy trade.
They’ve also started an online directory of grassroots groups that are using the guide, the Indivisible Local Group Directory. According the the Indivisible team, “[y]ou can now search our directory and find people who are committed to standing with you in this fight. If you don’t find a group in your area, start one yourself! People will join you—there are Indivisible readers in every congressional district in the country.”
We strongly recommend the guide for people ready to conduct advocacy at the local level. If you’re one of them, read on—you’ll be able to download the guide below, thanks to the team’s generosity.
