Description

From the organizers:

The incoming Trump regime is a clear and present danger to all oppressed people and workers. He threatens mass deportations, a witch hunt against Trans people, attacks on abortion rights, an intensified racist backlash, tax cuts for the rich, massive deregulation of the economy, more climate-be-damned fracking and drilling, and deployment of the military against domestic protests and the so-called “enemy within.” Despite his claims to oppose war, he will greenlight Israel’s expanding genocide, pander to Putin and Russian imperialism in Ukraine, and intensify Washington’s imperialist rivalry with China. Come to this meeting to discuss the threat, how to unite against it, and ways to build the resistance from day one of Trump’s misrule.

Speakers include:

  • Rossy Alfaro and Will Lambek, Migrant Justice
  • Phoebe Zorn, Queer Community Leader
  • Nolan Rampy, Howard Center, AFSCME 1674
  • Samia Abbass, Southern Vermont for Palestine
  • Jonathan Elwell, Free Her & Vermont Justice
  • Emily Kelley, Reproductive Justice Activist
