Come find out how popular resistance can make the difference between a democracy’s survival or death. Speaker Toby Sackton, a lifelong activist and a founder of Lexington Alarm, will describe how citizen activism can reverse authoritarian trends, what popular resistance has looked like over the past year, and what we have to prepare for in the next three years. The abuses that led to the American Revolution — rule by a king, troops seizing people without a warrant, using office for personal gain, arresting people for what they say — are all being repeated in our time. Come learn about the power of citizens who speak up.
At First Parish in Wayland, 225 Boston Post Road, and on Zoom.
