SRC is a grassroots movement fiercely dedicated to ending the rise of fascism and defending American democracy. We believe that resistance requires visibility, education, community solidarity, and a ridiculous amount of determination.

53 resisters protested in Oak Ridge TN today. Some smoke was rolled, some birds were flipped but a lot of horns honked and hands were waving 🙂
We #resist every Saturday because we care! @thetnholler.bsky.social

This Saturday will be the 35th weekly protest on the sidewalk in Oak Ridge. Every week since early spring a group of between 40-60 persistent resisters has lined the sidewalk in front of the Oak Ridge library with sheer determination and increasingly creative protest signs.

Our 32nd consecutive protest is done! Oak Ridge has a dedicated group of folks that simply HAVE to let it be known that we will NOT quietly accept living in an authoritarian country.
Join us next week if you too just have to say how you feel.

22 patriots braved the rain and cold weather in #Townsend today at the entrance to #GSMNP to say #HandsOff our parks! This land is our land, come join us next time we exercise our #FirstAmendment rights to #ProtectOurParks @nashvilleresist.bsky.social @altnps.bsky.social @6news.bsky.social
Protester wearing a bear mask and two signs, one sign says, "honk some love for our parks" and the other sign says, "this land was made for you and me" Protesters are visible on both sides of the road just outside the Townsend GSMNP entrance. Protesters are visible across the street and on the same side of the road as the Townsend entrance sign to GSMNP. Most of the leaves are off the trees as it is very late fall. It is also raining, the road is wet and there appear to be shallow puddles along the road. The temperature outside was in the low 40s, cold enough people wore layers and were definitely braving cold, wet weather. Two protesters visible in the background across the street from one protester who is smiling, wearing a wet rain coat with the hood up, and a pair of glasses. He's holding a white sign with mostly black letters except for the word "no" which is written in red. The sign reads, "no East Wing "renovations" to our parks"

Scenes from the sidewalk in front of the library in Oak ridge TN, where about 45 Patriots joined to exercise their first amendment rights. Visible, readable signs from this photo include, "Save USA 8647", "Be kind America", and "Make America KIND Again" Scenes from the 30th consecutive weekly protest in Oak Ridge, TN. On one side of the sidewalk are a line of protesters. On the side of the sidewalk where the trees live are two tables set up, one with a table of baked goods raising money for children in Gaza, the other with community resources and extra signs. Scenes from the 30th consecutive weekly protest in Oak Ridge, TN. A distance photo of most of the line of people exercising their first amendment rights, from noon to 2pm by the library. A line of stopped traffic is visible, and people are peacefully holding their signs so the people in their cars are able to read the signs while driving by. It is visibly near late fall because there are leaves all over the grass and almost none left on the trees. A photo of the line of protesters from far enough away it appears almost to be a big crowd of about 40 people. There's a line of stopped traffic because Turnpike is one of the major roads, and this photo was taken from the perspective of being near the intersection of Turnpike and Tulane.

Protest sign that is white with black letters, it says, "I'm not your enemy this is not a military training ground" A mostly sunny day with a few clouds in the distance, the visible trees are mostly without leaves, which are all over the grass. The sidewalk is mostly clear from them, and there are many protesters visible in the distance. Two are closer to the photographer, one is holding a sign that is white with black letters, it says, "be kind America" and there is an American flag attached to the top of it. Another similar view to the previous photo, trees are bare of leaves, it is clearly late fall. A number of protesters are visible in the distance. Close up of a sign, white background with black letters, the sign says, "And it's a certain kind of FOOL who likes the SOUND of his own NAME" with "Eagles' Desperado, Certain Kind of Fool (1973)" underneath explaining where the quoted lyrics can be found.
