A trainer from Siembra NC will be in Forest City tomorrow (11/20) for an ICE Watch/Border Patrol response training. With Border Patrol now active in Charlotte, Raleigh, and Asheville, it’s important for our community to know how to document, respond, and support each other! DM for RSVP link.

48 community care kits assembled today! Some went to folks along the Rail Trail, others to Grace of God, and a few were taken by neighbors to share on their daily routes. Each bag had socks, gloves, hats, snacks, hygiene items & more. Grateful for everyone who donated time, items, & heart. 🫶

✨ 525 people. Small town. Big energy. ✨ No Kings 2.0 absolutely showed out in Spindale today! 💛 We packed the house with joy, costumes, and courage… plus a disco ball, inflatable animals, and a rollerblading inflatable baby 🛼👶 because democracy should be fun.

💛🎭 This Saturday! No Kings 2.0 @ Spindale House, 11–1 We’re standing up for democracy and standing with Portland. Wear yellow or come in costume. Make it weird, make it joyful, make it loud! Resistance doesn’t have to be grim. It can be creative, kind, and unapologetically human.

Stop invading our cities! There is no grave widespread emergency that warrants sending the National Guard into our cities. Leave us alone.
