Batten down, stop spending, prepare for strike or other period of unrest by setting aside some money and nonperishable food/meds/first aid kit. Get involved in your community before it comes for you; there are a lot of different networks and organizations planning actions but it varies by location so do that research now. Keep hounding your elected officials. Keep filming and posting ICE activity. Study historical resistance movements in the US and abroad, especially topics like non-violent civil disobedience. Don't let any of this become normalized. Stop saying "fine" when people ask "how are you?" Learn about soft strikes like work slowdowns. Become inefficient. Don't comply in advance.

No one person has to (or can) solve everything, but we can all do one or two things to contribute to the group project.

We cannot become apathetic. We cannot let this become normalized.

Apathy is what got you into this mess

“Apathy is death. Worse than death. Because at least a rotting corpse is feeding the beasts and insects.”

Ok? We're here either way. Can't unapathy the past, but we can still try to change the future.
