About
PLEASE READ IN FULL: This Memorial Day, May 25th, join us for **Hands Across Long Island — In Defense of Democracy**, a powerful day of unity, community, and action. Forty years ago, *Hands Across America* inspired millions to come together in a shared call for compassion and hope. On this 40th anniversary, Long Island is creating its own moment of solidarity — not by physically joining hands as in 1986, but by joining voices, hearts, and purpose. Across Long Island, “We the People” groups, community organizations, advocates, families, friends, and neighbors will stand together to defend the values that connect us: equality, freedom, rights, choice, justice, and the power of every voice to be heard. This is an invitation to everyone who believes democracy is strongest when people show up for one another. Whether you are attending for the first time or have spent years advocating for change, your presence matters. Come be part of a visible, united movement for hope, dignity, and democracy — because together, we are stronger. We will gather in Hampton Bays at the address below and DIVIDE the attendees up into 3-5 small groups or more in Flanders & Hampton Bays. We ask that attendee be prompt. It is important to sign up for this event to keep up on all updates. This event is on Memorial Day, a somber day; it is in hope that signage for this day will be focused on encouragement for the defense of our democracy rather than criticism of the current administration. This is a local Indivisible events brought to you by indivisibleLI.org Please feel free to visit our website. *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.*
