Hey Cambridge folks! Here's a fundraiser for you!

Join First Parish Cambridge for a benefit for the LUCE statewide Rapid Response Hotline and anchor organization, Neighbor to Neighbor.

LUCE is a multilingual, immigrant-led project that responds to immigration enforcement, trains community members to verify and document ICE activity, and mobilizes support so our neighbors are not isolated in moments of crisis. Neighbor to Neighbor builds power in Black, brown, immigrant and working-class communities across Massachusetts to protect and strengthen our democracy. Your contribution will directly sustain the LUCE hotline's rapid response, volunteer training, and organizing that defends immigrant communities while building long-term power across Massachusetts.

The event will be open to the community and live-streamed on Zoom.

We hope you'll join us for a reception afterwards in the parlor.

We're honored for the Lead Sponsor of the Dignity Not Deportations legislation in the Massachusetts State House to join us, Senator Adam Gomez, and to hear songs by the Choir of First Parish in Cambridge led by Kenneth Griffith.

Event TOMORROW!!

From Instagram, a post by Lucy Parsons Center:
NO HEALTHCARE. NO GALA.
Sowa Power Station - 550 Harrison Ave, Friday, Nov 14, 5:45 PM
Join us to protest Fenway Health's gala. On Fenway's website, they are calling their gala a "testament to our resilience" and a time to "resist with joy" while cowering to the Trump Administration and restricting care for trans minors and adults. They are selling tickets and tables for hundreds to thousands of dollars and claiming they don't have to resources to fight the Trump Administration in court. While executives and donors celebrate, trans youth and families are fighting to survive.
Gender affirming care will NOT be abandoned. Bring a mask, a sign, and a friend.
We will be welcoming and encouraging gala attendees to join our protest. Our picket will not be blocking attendees from entering.

2025-08-20T14:22:05Z

How to form an "resistance pod":

Find a few friends and neighbors who agree with you that this situation is fucked and something needs to be done about it.

Make a Signal chat with them so you can invite each other to protests and trainings.

Skill up your group! Is one member interested in first aid? Pass the hat around and send them to a certification class. Does one member like arts and crafts? Get them the supplies to make protest signs or flyers. Have someone attend a de-escalation or bystander training and report back/teach the group.

Stick together and know your friends' risk tolerance before you show up to an action. If someone can't risk being arrested you should know that and plan accordingly.

Connect with larger, but locally-centered, groups to help with their work, either by attending protests, volunteering time, or helping to fundraise or gather supplies.

We know many of you are tired of protests. So use these hyper-local events to connect with your neighbors and find an organization to join that is local, direct-action-oriented, and doing something that impacts your immediate neighbors. Good examples of local and state organizations to join are:

mutual aid groups

bail funds

anti-racist groups

immigration accompaniment/sponsorship programs

ICE watch groups

LGBTQ+ refugee support groups (for folks leaving or entering the US)

Try to look for groups that are giving resources directly to those in need, and without excessive bureaucracy and structured applications. Direct mutual aid and solidarity are the name of the game now, and your goal is to connect with your neighbors and build structures that will allow you to support each other as things continue to go downhill.

We cannot stress this enough: the residents of Massachusetts are under a vicious attack from ICE and that attack is being aided and abetted by the local police departments and our Governor.

We have a message for every Bay Stater who believes they are an anti-fascist: Governor Healey and your local police department need to feel the full force of your rage. You need to let them know that you expect them to either protect the people of our Commonwealth from ICE or stand aside to let us protect ourselves.

2025-04-14T19:19:28Z

After significant pressure from the city of Cambridge, the American Association of University Professors and Harvard faculty, staff, students, and alumni, Harvard issued this very (for them) powerful letter promising not to cave to federal pressure: https://www.harvard.edu/president/news/2025/the-promise-of-american-higher-education/

Protest makes a difference. So does calling your alma mater. So do city council resolutions. Public pressure is what will keep our community institutions on the right track or get them back on track if they are not.

Recommit today to picking something to work on, no matter how small it feels, that gets you involved in fighting what is going on. There are so many ways to fight and we need them all.

This is a good time to remind everyone of the SALUTE and ALERTA acronyms for reporting information:

https://workersdefensealliance.org/resources/salute-alerta-mnemonics-actionable-information

But mnemonics aren't everything. it is also important to only report information that you receive from a trusted contact who saw it firsthand, or from a social media post from a credible source that, ideally, has photographic documentation to back it up. Our own post above does not even meet those requirements, so we would encourage folks who are in the Chelsea area to attempt to verify our information if at all possible rather than immediately jumping to panic or reaction.

We have a credible report that an unknown number of ICE agents were seen between 8-9am in the parking lot of Market Basket and in the City Hall area of Chelsea, MA.

We do not have numbers or any description of them beyond that at this time. Will share if any more information becomes available.

Remember, spread information not panic:

Report only verified information from yourself or a trusted source and report the information as specifically as possible.

Get pictures if possible.

This is probably a good time to note that if you are an immigrant traveling and you want to get back into the US, you should try to eliminate anything that could be considered even remotely political from your phone, possessions, travel agenda, etc.

Spotted March 6th at around 1pm near Lahey in Burlington, MA: one police cruiser with "US Customs and Border Protection" on the side. Car is a white Ford SUV with a dark blue swatch on the rear door. Vehicle number is L74240. License plate may read 278059, but the 8 and the 0 may be incorrect. Direction of vehicle movement is unknown, and number of officers in vehicle unknown.

Will post more details if we have them.

Please be careful to verify and accurately post any information about ICE movements if you have it. Do not post unsubstantiated rumors or incite panic. Use the SALUTE acronym to help you post accurately if it is helpful.

345 Broadway Rockland, ME, 04841

Mass Meeting at the First Universalist Church, 345 Broadway, Rockland ME 04841.

During the Civil Rights Movement, meetings were held right before actions, and we'll follow that lead. Our in-person mass meetings are essential not only to move people into action, not only to get people connected to planning, but also to get new ideas rolling into the thick of things. Everything that The Audacity is doing happened because somebody said "someone ought to," and then somebody signed up to work on it. If you've got an idea, bring it to the meeting. If enough people jump on board to organize your idea and it fits within our mission, it'll happen -- grassroots democracy in action.

For many of our members, the overturning of Roe v Wade was the crossing of the Rubicon. For others it was January 6th, and for still others it was NSC-131's attacks on the public library in Fall River, MA.

For anyone who decides *today* that your personal Rubicon has been crossed, the fight is already underway and all you need to do is find your position and get started. To do that, you need to do two things:

1. Admit to yourself that the situation is real and you are committed to fight against it in whatever way you can.

2. Pick one group, any group that is doing antifascist work, show up, and find something you can do to help.

Hegseth fired the senior JAGs, the folks who keep the military in line and ensure it follows the law and does not commit war crimes.

They are removing the means for various government systems to resist inappropriate use. The implication being that they intend to use them inappropriately or not at all. With the military, it is likely to be the former.

Even if you have lost faith in national politics, local and state elections have the power to change lives immensely in a country where the states are increasingly checking the intrusions of the federal government.

If you are still looking for something to do, consider throw your support behind a state or local candidate who will hold back federal fascists.

2025-02-14T23:02:43Z

Hey everyone, it's #STFUFriday!

Here's a little something everyone can practice going into this weekend: don't talk to the cops.

Don't say hi, don't shoot the breeze, don't say "thanks" when they do something "nice" for you (they don't need your thanks they're getting paid $$$$ out of your taxes and on the weekend they are getting paid even more).

Just don't talk to them. It's that easy. Walk past as if they aren't there. This is great practice for when the cops inevitably end up facing off against you as you protest fascism.

Let's do a quick review:
Cops enforced slavery
Cops enforced women's servitude to their husbands
Cops enforced Jim Crow and segregation

What makes you think that cops are somehow going to magically wake up this time and not enforce fascist laws?

Don't kid yourself and don't believe the liberal whitewashing of the police. You don't have to yell ACAB from the rooftops but you DO need to understand that the police are never your friends, allies, or even a neutral party in this fight. Their ranks are full of MAGATs, racists, and misogynists, as well as sympathisers who cover up for the racists and misogynists.

THIS is how you handle fascist events in your neighborhood. 🎉🎉 Props to residents of Hudson Massachusetts who told January 6th insurrectionists to kick rocks.

https://www.telegram.com/story/news/2025/02/14/event-at-avidia-bank-in-hudson-featuring-jan-6-protesters-called-off/78609537007/

Don't mind their whining about "free speech." Being a Nazi is not a protected status. No one is obligated to platform these traitors.

If you live in the area, there's still more work to do. The Hudson Republican Town Committee openly endorsed and fought for this event to happen. That makes them traitors and fascists with links to violent criminals. Just because they dropped the event doesn't mean they aren't fascist any more. They cannot be allowed to dodge responsibility for their actions.

Our Know Your Rights training is back for February! This time we have both in-person and virtual options.

These trainings fill up quickly, so if you and/or your loved ones do not have active immigration concerns, we strongly recommend that you wait until February 17 to register. Registration is required.

If you need childcare (on-site only) or have access needs (both sessions), please let us know by February 20.

By the way, we still have space remaining in our Feb 25 (6-8 pm) Virtual Volunteer Orientation!

Hey everyone it's still #MutualAidMonday so there's still time to celebrate by helping someone out or posting what you need.

There are so many good reasons to participate in mutual aid, but here's one more: mutual aid is antifascist and it increases community resilience in the face of the current attacks on US federal support systems. If you're hurting for cash or resources let people know what you need so you can continue existing and fighting. If you have money or resources to spare, share them freely so your friends and neighbors can be less afraid for their lives and more able to stand up to our fascist government.

From @love.your.labels on Instagram:

"Last week, Councilor Colorio pushed our petition to vote on declaring Worcester a sanctuary city for trans and gender diverse people out a week, and the Mayor has not responded to our requests for the public apology to Councilor Nguyen for their transphobic experiences, which Council voted to make over two weeks ago, or to an investigation (which should be on the agenda this week!). SO, WE ARE HEADING BACK TO TALK ABOUT IT! This Tuesday, 2/11, before the Worcester City Council meeting, we're showing up serving Diva Decorum as we Queer Ball at City Hall before the City Council meeting at 6:30.

Queer and trans folks have always found joy during the fight for our rights, so bring that energy with you on Tuesday.

We want this to be our biggest turn out yet. So DRAG your friends out for an evening of action. We're really looking forward to holding space with all of you (we're in queer media now). Never been to City Hall or to a Council meeting before? This is literally the best reason to start because it's all about joy and community. There will be no pressure to speak, we'll have info to update you on what's going on, and folks to talk to about the work ahead.

DETAILS:

5:30 PM - show up at City Hall, 3rd Floor
5:45 PM - drag, dance, register to vote, sign up for more
6:15 PM - strut to public comment (for those who want to speak)

See you there royals!"

WITCH CITY ACTION
Rapid Response Workshop

As ICE activity increases statewide, learn how to identify, notify, and keep our community safe from violence and deportation.

Friday February 7th, 7pm
Shoe Bones Gallery
28 Boston St Salem, MA 01970

Our communities are under an unprecedented threat right now. In collaboration with local immigration activist groups in Salem and the north shore, we are putting together a training to help identify threats, and connect our communities with rapid response resources to better aid our neighbors affected by this sharp uptick in ICE raids. Homeless issues are immigration issues, and a threat to one is a threat to us all.

Come join us this Friday and turn your anxiety to action!

EDIT:

If you can't make it to this training, or want to organize one on your own, DM for a link to our slides, and contacts with local immigrant justice networks on the north shore. The more of us we can get activated, the safer we are!

yep this is definitely one to approach with caution. The organizers seem sincere but very uninformed about how to go about setting up a protest or what actually happens at protests (e.g calls to "obey the police").

For anyone who chooses to go, please exercise caution and do not go alone. We are still leaning towards "sincere but really poorly organized" but that can be just as dangerous as an actual trap, especially in red states. It may also be the case that some states have sincere protests while others are a ruse.

as far as our members can tell, it appears to be a grassroots protest movement. However, it is wise to approach any protest with caution if it is not organized by groups you know of. All the normal protest precautions would apply here (phone off, face and fingerprint lock disabled, wear a head covering and mask, cover any distinguishing marks or tattoos), plus the following:

Approach the protest area from an angle that allows you to see the setup of the area. See if there are other people there who look like they're there for a protest. Trust your gut and if things look "off" you can always watch from a distance and decide whether to join.

Observe the area for police presence before entering. Police presence is expected at a protest, but if there are lines of cops with riot gear or police that are from outside your local jurisdiction (State police, for example), you may want to rethink your risk analysis.

It is extremely unlikely that 50501 was started by fascist street gangs, but it is nevertheless a good idea to be vigilant for any large groups of people looking like fascist street gangs. This could mean uniforms like khakis and black or blue shirts, masks with fascist insignia, or it could simply be a large group of buff guys hanging out together.

Even though 50501 is not likely a ruse, it is still a possibility that the events will be used by fascist governments to arrest political dissenters or by right-wing agitators to start fights or commit violent acts that can be blamed on the protesters. For that reason, we recommend going but being extra safety-conscious and considering your personal risk tolerance before participating.

If you are planning some kind of action, thinking of some kind of action, or entertaining the idea of some kind of action, and it is not a peaceful protest that you are OK with the entire world to showing up to (including counter-protesters), then KEEP IT OFF SOCIAL MEDIA.

Publishing your political action thoughts online is an invitation to doxxing and harassment at best, arrest and imprisonment at worst.

Have those those thoughts and conversations offline or on a private and secure online medium. Do not have them in public.

We get that people are looking for new friends to be angry with, but making online friends with people over direct action ideas is a great way to get entrapped by a federal agent or end up doing something sketchy with someone you shouldn't actually trust who then rats you out.

There's a reason why everyone is suggesting starting with mutual aid, going to large protests, joining existing advocacy groups, or otherwise peaceful and lower-risk ways of getting involved. It's because that's the stuff you do so that you can meet the people you trust, who you can then take more risks with.

If you have spicy ideas and the urge to share them, write them down somewhere where no one else will see them and then go do something that builds yourself or builds community. Meet new people and strengthen existing relationships. Figure out who you trust with your privacy and who you trust with your life.
