About
This recent ruling, SCOTUS essentially authorized partisan gerrymandering to override Black voters' right to meaningful representation, erasing decades of progress in a single ruling. People fought, bled, and died for these protections. The Court has dismissed those sacrifices with the stroke of a pen. But this fight is far from over. While they are trying to strip away our voice, we still do have the right to vote and we need to continue to vote and make our voices heard. That’s why, this July, six years after the passing of civil rights hero Congressman Lewis, Coweta Indivisible will continue the fight for voting rights and other civil rights with a protest and rally. Whether you're outraged by these attacks on voting rights or of other civil rights, the gutting of essential services, disappearances of our neighbors, or the assault on free speech and our right to organize, we invite you to join us in making good trouble. A core principle behind all Good Trouble Lives On 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 and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
