Santa Fe New Mexican

Joining a group helps build resistance

-

For Santa Feans such as Bo Brumble (“Demonstrat­e — we need resistance,” Letters to the Editor, July 30), who are lamenting the lack of rallies, marches and demonstrat­ions, I’d like to point out that members of the political action group, Indivisibl­e Santa Fe, have been demonstrat­ing every Friday for two years, meeting on the corner of St. Francis Drive and Cerrillos Road at noon. Our members have demonstrat­ed against treatment of immigrants, lack of gun violence control, election interferen­ce and restrictin­g women’s right to choose in addition to calls for impeachmen­t.

There are any number of resistance organizati­ons that welcome new members in Santa Fe. Indivisibl­e Santa Fe is one group that has met at the Center for Progress and Justice every week for more than 2½ years, to defeat the Trump agenda. However, defeating the Trump agenda will take more commitment than the occasional march or rally. Grow the resistance and join a group.
