On January 20, I pledge to walk out on fascism and walk toward a Free America.

I refuse to accept raids, purges, surveillance, and fear as the new normal. I will help block the routines of power, support my community, and take action with courage and care.

I pledge to organize with my neighbors, classmates, and coworkers.I pledge to defend our rights, our bodies, and our future.I pledge to help build the world we deserve—one where everyone eats, everyone belongs, and nobody is left behind.

This is a protest and a promise. I’m in.
