✊ Indivisible Chicago is joining our partners Chicago Alliance and others in an action downtown next weekend to fight back against police crimes and racist attacks on voting rights! JOIN US!

When: 12 PM, Saturday, June 20th
Where: Federal Plaza, Chicago IL

The continued Supreme Court erosion of the Voting Rights Act is a racist attack on the fundamental democratic rights of Black people in the United States. Trump wants to take us back to the era of Jim Crow racism and disenfranchisement that was ushered in with the violent betrayal of reconstruction in 1877. But we will not go back.

Black people and all oppressed people have always fought back against racist and political repression. This Juneteenth weekend, join us in the streets to fight back and demand:

🗣️ DEFEND VOTING RIGHTS!
🗣️ DEFEND FAMILIES AFFECTED BY POLICE CRIMES!
🗣️ FREE SURVIVORS OF TORTURE AND WRONGFUL CONVICTION!
🗣️ END CPD-ICE COLLABORATION!

When voting rights are under attack, what do we do? RISE UP FIGHT BACK!

Critics quickly decried Hegseth’s comments as “straight-up white nationalist talk,” “utterly disgusting,” “despicable,” and “a disgrace to the memory of the men and women who gave their lives to win World War II.” US Army veteran Mike Lavigne denounced Hegseth as “a disgrace to his office and to the nation.”
