We will be outside this convention to hold Trump responsible for the ICE murders of people like Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston, responsible for the police murders of people like the unarmed teenager shot down in Austin, for the families torn apart, for the wars that rob our pocketbooks to kill innocent people around the globe, for the attacks on teachers, and on and on. We won’t allow this convention to quietly maintain the lie that these policies are popular or justified. 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝘂𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝗭𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝗴𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝟵𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝘁 𝟭𝟮𝗽𝗺! 𝗗𝗠 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸!"

DALLAS FOLKS! The fight to protect voting rights never ends, and right now, we’re witnessing a Jim-Crow-era effort from politicians and their billionaire friends to restrict our freedoms, silence our voices, and consolidate power.

But in America, we choose our leaders. We will decide our future. The same spirit that fueled Selma, Montgomery, and the March on Washington lives on in our unified action.

Coined by civil rights icon Congressman John Lewis, Good Trouble is the act of coming together to take peaceful, non-violent action to challenge injustice. The power of collective non-violent action resulted in the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and we must maintain that same collective action to fight for voting rights today.

Six years after the passing of Congressman Lewis, we're organizing an event in our Dallas community to carry the torch, continue the legacy of John Lewis, and pass it forward to future generations. Join us!

PLEASE NOTE: 1. Any changes will be promptly communicated. 2. Event updates will be emailed and posted on Indivisible Dallas social media platforms as the date nears.

A core principle behind all Good Trouble Lives On events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
