SUMMARY:Houghton - A Good Trouble Rally
DESCRIPTION:A Good Trouble Rally is scheduled from 4:00 to 6:00 pm on Thursday\, July 17th\, by Keweenaw Indivisible\, and we are joining them.   Please bring a water bottle\, dress appropriately for the weather\, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. And spread the word! \n\nIn support of the Good Trouble Rally at Houghton’s Veterans Park at 4:00 pm\, a MotorMarch is being staged.  Meet at the Keweenaw Unitarian Universalist Fellowship parking lot at 3 pm to decorate your car.  Participants will decorate their private vehicles with signs or slogans drawn on side windows with “windshield markers.” We encourage the display of as many American flags as possible. Vehicles will then circulate repeatedly through downtown Houghton\, blending with normal traffic flows and passing the rally site. The MotorMarch provides an excellent opportunity for participants to engage in the rally without having to navigate parking\, street crossings\, and the challenging sloping terrain of the rally location. It will significantly extend the rally’s impact. \nGood Trouble Lives On is a national day of nonviolent action in response to the attacks on our civil and human rights posed by the Trump administration\, and to remind them that in America\, power lies with the people. On July 17\, the anniversary of Congressman John Lewis’s passing\, we’re taking action across the country to defend our democracy and carry forward his legacy of Good Trouble. From voter suppression bills like the SAVE Act to the criminalization of protest\, the Trump administration is launching a full-scale attack on our civil and human rights. But we know the truth: in America\, the power lies with the people\, and we’re rising to prove it. This is more than a protest; it’s a moral reckoning. A continuation of the movement Lewis helped lead\, and a new front in the struggle for freedom. \n**Please note:** A core principle behind our Good Trouble Lives On actions is a commitment to nonviolence in all we do. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
