Who are the people organizing? Well, there’s a few…

• ‘There’s a movement bubbling up’: Anti-Trump protests planned nationwide Saturday– “We want to make that space to have those massive protests, but we also want to make sure that you can walk outside your door and start resisting if that’s what you need to do…it takes real political courage to stand up in a small town, in a red city, in a red state, in a red region, and to say, ‘No. We’re here, and we’re going to stand up and fight for what’s right here in our community.’
• The power and pitfalls of protest: how to speak out without falling victim to Trump’s playbook – “…it is brave and worthy to engage in protest for just causes, against powerful actors; not only that, it’s necessary if we want to have a democracy.”
• Previously on All Things Jennifer: This is What Democracy Looks Like!

If you’re afraid, swap it out for anger. We don’t have time to be retreating to the fetal position. We do not.

You can’t allow fear to become so familiar that it becomes comfortable. That’s the path to the afterlife.
