Timothy Snyder, in his book, On Tyranny, argues that one step on the road to authoritarianism is when citizens faced with it “obey in advance” — “anticipatory obedience” teaches power what it can get away with.
We meet at a busy intersection near rt 24 in Brockton to protest in support of those who instead RESIST — even when it costs them. Bring a sign to stiffen spines that might need it at the moment we are in! For example, “Be Brave, Judges!” or “Be Brave, Public Servants!”
A core principle behind all Indivisible 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.
