PASADENA Free America Walkout

We are facing an escalating fascist threat—raids on our communities, troops occupying our cities, attacks on immigrants, families torn apart, mass surveillance, and fear used to keep people silent.

Silence is not an option.
Now is the time for collective action to demand the restoration of due process and rule of law.

As these threats grow, we must organize, escalate, and stand together in peace and unity to confront misogyny, racism, xenophobia, and government-sponsored violence. We choose courage over fear and solidarity over division.

Call your neighbors. Text your friends. Rally your classmates and coworkers.

Together walk out on dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, extreme nationalism, militarism, and the subordination of our individual rights to the state.

This is both a protest and a promise.

★ We walk away from fascism.
★ We walk toward a Free America.
★ We fight for a future that belongs to all of us.
★ Everybody in. Nobody out.

At 2:00 PM local time on January 20, physically walk out of your workplace, school, or commercial activity.

Bring a sign. Walk peacefully along the Colorado Blvd. sidewalk from Raymond to Lake.

This is a peaceful walk.
