Indivisible, getting organized! Press roundup, February 14–17
With
Congressional recesses next week, the Indivisible movement’s preparing
for Town Halls. There’s even more national coverage than in Ramping up! (the previous press roundup), including including Claire Foran’s The Anti-Trump ‘Resistance’ Takes Hold in Red States in The Atlantic, Time, Newsweek, NPR, Common Dreams, Talking Points Memo, Vice, and of course Rachel Maddow.Once
again, though, it’s the local newspapers and TV stations who are where
the action is — which is pretty much everywhere at this point! Here’s a
partial roundup … if you know some other links, please leave them as
“responses.”
I’ve been seeing a lot of twitter posts about Townhalls and protests happening in everything from small, rural towns to big cities. The big media franchises seem to be focusing on the narrative of big city protests, but now I’m seeing more local media coverage.
Charlottesville, VA; Buffalo, NY; Boise, ID; Charleston, SC; Rocklin, CA; Sartell, MN; Mansfield, OH; Durango, CO; Yakima, WA; Ogden, UT; Terre Haute, IN; Las Cruces, NM; Dayton, FL; Wilco, TX; West Valley, AZ; Evesham, NJ; Fayateville, AK are just a sampling collated by Jon Pincus in this post.
