From Refuse Fascism’s Call to Act:
“… Trump’s MAGA mobs maraud around the country in water and land caravans; they murder protesters and innocent people by guns and by their cars. They spread COVID. They are inflamed with passionate reactionary intensity. All for the purpose of rousing their followers and intimidating and demoralizing all who should be standing up for justice. Now we must act. Beginning Saturday, October 3rd, gather and bring your family, friends, and community into the public squares of cities and towns across the country in non-violent protest unified by the demand: Trump/Pence OUTNOW! And, come back in waves, day after day….”
Ernestine Henning Supervisor (ret.) AME Church
“… We are facing an emergency! No matter our race, our gender, our religion or our economic status, Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to all of us. We have wondered how Hitler happened? We are watching, seeing, how Hitler happened! And we can’t and won’t wait for fascism to consolidate! Trump is a criminal and a con-man who has no boundaries and whose biggest con-job has been on America itself. He is thus, a danger to the nation, to the world and to the whole of humanity. His own niece said, in her book about him, that ‘he is the world’s most dangerous man.’ Bernie Sanders recently said, in a TV interview, that ‘if you believe in the Constitution, in the rule of law, Donald Trump has got to go.’ The, illegitimate, fascist Trump/Pence regime, has got to go. I am calling everyone into the streets to protest Oct 3 and through month of October to demand and achieve Trump/Pence Out Now! We MUST win, our very lives, and the lives of people everywhere, depend upon it….”
Peter McClaren, Distinguished Professor of Critical Studies, Chapman College
“…The Trump/Pence regime is the most dangerous political administration in recorded history. We cannot overstate the importance of throwing it out of office and ensuring that nothing like it ever presents itself again….”
