From the group’s Call, “In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America!”
“Donald Trump, the President-elect, is assembling a regime of grave danger. Millions of people in the US and around the world are filled with deep anxiety, fear, and disgust. Our anguish is right and just. Our anger must now become massive resistance – before Donald Trump is inaugurated and has the full reins of power in his hands.
“Should we fail to rise with determination and daring in our millions now to stop this, the consequences for humanity will be disastrous…
“We therefore CALL FOR A MONTH OF RESISTANCE beginning on December 19, reaching a crescendo by the January 20 2017 Inauguration.”
