Film showing and discussion with Rick Winston. Thursday, November 6.

Says Winston, "This program originated when I realized that several major French filmmakers - François Truffaut, Louis Malle, Bertrand Tavernier among them - had all weighed in on the complexities of this painful period in their history. Now, it seems, this program has resonance for our own current moment as well."

No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.

On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.

Need a new sign for NK2?  Come to a sign making party on Friday October 17, 4:00 till 6:30 at the Maple Corner Community Center. We'll provide materials and sign ideas if you're looking for inspiration! Please email resc@together.net to let us know you’re coming.

This has been cancelled (see below).

We ordered 1,000 Get Out the Vote postcards to mail to Pennsylvania voters. We thought that was plenty to get some of you started with postcard packages and still have enough left for a good postcard party. But no!!! Every single card has been spoken for! You all are amazing!! We have none left!

Tuesday mornings in August and September! Starting on Tuesday, August 5 and running through September, from 10 AM till 11:30 AM, Indivisible Calais and Indivisible Hardwick will combine forces to "Honk and Wave for Democracy" at Peace Park in downtown Hardwick.

Sunday, September 28:
I'm sure a lot of you have noticed the beautiful homemade yard signs popping up all over town! We continue to receive requests for more signs so we are hosting a third sign painting party. The signs are pro-Democracy and a great way to display your message.

We'll be gathering to hear firsthand what it's like to live in a fascist country, and what we collectively can do to block fascism in our own country. Join Indivisible Calais at the Maple Corner Community Center on Monday, September 15, 7:00 to 8:30 pm to hear what the future could hold if we don’t fight back NOW!

First, Eileen Simpson, local Calais resident, will speak to us about her experiences and answer questions.

Then, we’ll introduce you to the One Million Rising training, a national grassroots effort to swell the ranks of Americans working to save our democracy.

Join Indivisible Calais in a Postcard Writing Party at the Maple Corner Community Center, Sunday, September 14th from 1-3:30pm. We will be writing to rally Democrats in Virginia, New Jersey and Pennsylvania to vote in the Nov. 4th elections!

The big show on Labor Day will be at the Burlington waterfront from 1:00 till 6:00 PM. We are encouraging everyone to support our union brothers and sisters and go to Burlington! But we know not everyone can get to the Queen City, so we're having a mini-rally at the Statehouse in Montpelier from 11 to 11:30 AM. Join the Solidarity Singers for a half hour of singing and chanting as a send-off for those who are going up to B-ton. If you need a ride, we'll make an announcement and see who has extra room in their cars.

"The Sweetness of Fair Sparrow" concert to benefit the Montpelier "Just Basics" food pantry, Sunday, August 24, 4:00 PM, at Dragonfly Lane in Maple Corner. Click photo above for full details.

Once again, this is part of a national day of action, solidarity with the Democrat members of the Texas House who have fled the state to deny the quorum the GOP needs to redistrict Texas --and STEAL FIVE CONGRESSIONAL SEATS! Make no mistake, this is what Donald Trump wants to cement his authoritarian control over Congress.

One of two important Honk and Waves. We will be joining patriots nationwide who are aghast that Trump has unleashed national troops on the streets of Washington DC.
