Pushback 50501

I was going to do a regular link round up tonight but when I did a quick search about the 50501 protests, I saw enough content for its own post. This is a special edition covering just the 50501 protests. That stands for 50 protests in 50 states in 1 day. As I said yesterday, I decided not to attend for a couple reasons, mostly organizational, but I am glad to be wrong. Sure, a few hundred people at a protest may not seem like a big deal to us coastal elites but in the red states, that is an opportunity for people to meet, connect, and organize more and better protests.

The only state missing here is Alaska, and I'm willing to give them a pass because the temperature in Juneau was in the 20s today. The state legislature there did successfully slap down an effort to rename Mt. Denali, so they were doing the work too.

I'll be back with another round up tomorrow. This is a crowd-sourced effort, so if you come across a news item or call to action that you think we should include, please complete this form. Some links will require subscriptions.
