HADLEY, MA – Sat, 4/12 > Tesla Takedown Western MA – Sidewalk Protest at Supercharger Location

April 12 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT

Event is on, rain or shine

There’s no such thing as “bad” weather….just poor clothing choices!

Why are we doing this?

Over 200 of us came out on March 29th, with flags and signs and chants. Let’s do it again!

What’s the message?
Elon Musk is destroying our democracy, and he’s using the fortune he built at Tesla to do it. We are taking nonviolent action at Tesla to stop Musk’s illegal coup.

  • Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines.

  • We’re tanking Tesla’s stock price to stop Musk.

  • Stopping Musk will help save lives and protect our democracy.

Tesla Takedown is a peaceful protest movement. We oppose interference with others’ rights to go about their business, violence, vandalism, and destruction of property.

This protest is a lawful exercise of our First Amendment right to peaceful assembly.

On blocking the Tesla chargers…DON’T DO IT.

On 3/29, the actions of a few people who blocked chargers reflected poorly (in the press, and to those who witnessed the behavior) on the 200 other people who came out for the #TeslaTakedown.

Please do not block the Tesla chargers with your vehicles. It’s not OK. We don’t want to inconvenience Tesla owners, most of whom bought their Teslas to protect the planet. In exercising our rights, we will not impinge on the rights of others.

Parking

Please don’t park on the Pride property. Parking is available:

  • at Hadley Crossing, just east of the Bay Rd. intersection

  • along the side of Bay Rd.

  • at the vacant gas station just west of Pride

  • at Hampton Inn Village Shops, 41-49 Russell Street

Remember our goals!

  • to be in community with other pro-democracy folks!

  • to grow in numbers and courage and resilience

  • to attract others to join us

  • to ready ourselves for the coming General Strikes

  • to be kind, and have fun!
