Commitment to Nonviolence

Refuse Fascism’s Statement of Unity and Principles begins:

We pledge to abide by and to hold others to the following principle:

To foster – and not undermine – uniting all who can be united from diverse political perspectives in nonviolent action to call forward the millions in resistance necessary to stop the Trump regime from consolidating fascism.

This first core principle concentrates our commitment to nonviolence in our all work and in the events and actions we initiate. We practice and expect all participants in events we organize to practice de-escalation.

IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY, WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT A FASCIST AMERICA!

NOW IS the TIME WHEN WE MUST RISE UP and ACT to STOP the CONSOLIDATION of TRUMP MAGA FASCISM. For the lives of people here and around the world we must refuse unlawful and inhumane orders… we must fill the streets and town squares in non-violent protest—not stopping until we become millions — not relenting until this regime is no longer able to implement its program or maintain its hold on power.
