We will continue to voice our opposition to cruelty, corruption, and the dismantling of democracy on the first Friday and third Friday of each month during 2026. Join us at the 4-corners, the corner of Main Street and M-52, from 4pm to 5pm, to peacefully gather to stand in solidarity to encourage “The People” to protect “ALL People and our Earth.” Dress warm, come if you are able, we appreciate everyone who braves discomfort and anxiety to be visible protectors when you’re able. Newcomers welcome, join our family, we care.
