We Won’t Go Back.

I have decided that today I would use my blog to tell as many people as possible about an upcoming event.

President-elect Donald Trump seeks to rollback decades’ worth of progress. He wants to separate families and tear apart our communities.

We Won’t Go Back is a coalition of groups in the New Bedford area who seek to protect the social and environmental progress made in the past decades especially when it comes to  immigrants, Muslims, GLBTs, Blacks, Women, and let’s be honest, any group who will potentially become the Other in the next round.

The intention is to supply information and have a coalition of mutually supportive groups working together providing resources to help each other instead of being individual groups who have not necessarily worked united in the past.

There is a lot of fear, and some groups need to know where they can turn for help, information, or just someone with whom and where they can feel safe.

There is a need for an aggressive, grassroots organization at the local level. Considering the make-up of New Bedford going back throughout its history to the present day and the multi-cultural and multi-racial make-up of its population, the city could play a leading role in advancing an inclusive and progressive platform for all persons and working families. For this reason We Won’t Go Back  will work to foster an extensive volunteer/activist network which blends traditional Get Out The Vote efforts, along with strong engagement with various civic and community groups.

To kick this off, there will be a gathering at Buttonwood Park in New Bedford starting at 1:00 pm on Sunday, December 4, for people to make signs, and at 2:00 pm a peaceful walk from there to the First Unitarian Church on Union Street.

Many political, social justice, and Community organizations were approached to be part of the kick off event and to be part of the process in the future.

Congressman Keating’s office, the Attorney General’s office, Senator Warren’s office, and Governor Baker’s office have committed to having a presence.

Not only are local community members encouraged to attend and then be part of the ongoing effort, but people from other communities are welcome to join in support and perhaps to network and exchange ideas how those who feel most threatened by the campaign talk, the people being chosen to run the government, and the words and actions that are so threatening can be made to feel safe, and learn what recourse they have.

Rather than simply complain and make unreasonable demands, this is a more proactive approach.

Hope to see those ho can make it there.
