New River Valley Indivisible
@nrvindivisible.bsky.social
Local chapter of Indivisible (indivisible.org) in Southwest Virginia’s New River Valley, in Montgomery County and surrounding localities, since January 2017. Our mission: elect progressive leaders, rebuild our democracy, and defeat the Trump agenda.
Protest ICE abuses and other authoritarian moves by the Trump regime. This Friday, 5:00-6:00 pm, on sidewalk in front of the Blacksburg downtown Post Office. Please sign up and check instructions here. (And no, it’s NOT the Postal Service we’re protesting! :) That’s just the location.)
Blacksburg Post Office Protest · Indivisible
The post office is at 118 North Main St. across from the UPS store.
We will gather starting at 4:50pm. If participants can’t be there by 5:00pm that’s ok - they should just join in once they can....

Poll: Trump's ratings on immigration tumble as Americans lose confidence in his top issue

Progress! Thank you, Gov. #Spanberger. It doesn’t cover local law enforcement, however - we are looking into that locally.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
