A favorite slogan to come from the last election cycle in our very red area of #Tennessee is “It’s not radical to care about people”.
Sadly we are all going to have to pitch in to keep our neighbors from starving (in America! 🤦‍♀️)
If your area is doing a food drive, please post about it to amplify.

When the government fails you, it’s time to turn to mutual aid. With SNAP benefits not going out next month, it’s time to step up and help.

Over the next month and a half, the Sumner Dems will be collecting food for both Feed Sumner and Shalom Zone. We are requesting non-perishable food items. 1/3

No child should ever go hungry, period.

The office will be open on Tues 9-1 and Fri from 1-5 the duration of the food drive. We’ll see you soon.

We’ve developed a community resource page on our website that includes an interactive map of all blessing boxes in our area. If you can’t bring food to the drive but want to help, we encourage you to drop food items at your local blessing box.

Indivisible Sumner said exactly what we feel. At approximately 12:30 AM this morning, the Sumner County Commission voted to appoint right-wing influencer Riley Gaines to the Sumner County library board.

Gaines was not present at the meeting and her sole library experience includes terrorizing… 1/2

We KNOW how much goes into pulling things together and it was an honor to support him.

Folks, take this energy and get involved! If you’re a Dem or an Independent who aligns with us, COME JOIN US. If you’re a Republican who is tired of Trump’s shit, it’s time for you to take your party back.

What a day! ❌👑🇺🇸

With approximately 600 people in attendance, No Kings Gallatin was an incredible time of community, encouragement, and resistance.

We’re especially proud of Sumner County’s newest organizer for the work he put in this week….

My name is Aftyn Behn, and I am running for Congress to feed kids, fix roads, and fund hospitals. I pledge to be a Congresswoman for the working families of America, and not for the corporations.

Now let's flip the table, flip this seat, and take back the house.

🚨 It’s back FOR A THIRD TIME!

Joanna is trying to bring this unconstitutional policy back one more time before she’s no longer on the library board. This time, she’s even coordinating with multiple churches to inundate the meeting with supporters who don’t actually understand the policy. 1/3

We had a wonderful time supporting the Sumner NAACP chapter at their annual dinner!

When organizations talk about the importance of voting, regardless of who you’re voting for, you know that they stand for good things!

Congratulations to President Rutledge and his team on a job well done!

On the 24th anniversary of 9/11 we call for unity, not division.

The myth of post-9/11 unity ignores how our Black and brown neighbors endured suspicion, hatred and violence.

Yesterday’s tragedies remind us: division is a choice, but so is unity — and true community is the strongest resistance.
