Dear Indivisible Members,

March is a big month in our area! We hope you will make your voice heard by voting early, or on March 17th in the Illinois Primary. You can find locations for Early Voting HERE.

The Indivisible WSC Voter Guide is available NOW by clicking here, and is also available on our website.

Also! At the end of the month is the 3rd National NO KINGS protest on Saturday, March 28th. 

On Saturday, March 28th at 9:30AM Indivisible West Suburban Chicago is hosting a local event for No Kings 3, but please note the new locations along Willow Springs Road in Western Springs.

Like our previous No Kings events we will be lining the sidewalk JOYFULLY and PEACEFULLY on Willow Springs Road (West Side of street) between 50th street and 53rd place. Just look for safety marshals in  yellow vests.

Park legally in the residential sub-developments on either side of Willow Springs Road. Please DO NOT park in the hospital parking lot.

This event will be held in the morning so that participants who choose to hop on the BNSF to go to the downtown march and rally will have time to do so. You can RSVP here to join us and for detail

We need YOUR help to make our No Kings local event a success! 

As always, we are most in need of experienced and/or trained marshals to ensure a safe, peaceful, and joyful experience.  But we will also need help with passing out literature, manning tables, counting participants, and leading in chants and songs. 

Please complete this form to let us know your availability and preferences for helping with the event. Much thanks!

From Indivisible Chicago: Science is for everyone–and benefits everyone.

Over the past year, the Trump administration has been stripping science for parts, just as they are eroding the democratic norms that make science, research, and inquiry possible. There is no life-as-usual, or science-as-usual under these conditions. Join with Stand Up for Science March 7th at 1pm at Federal Plaza in Chicago to rally together and Take Back Our Science!

Whether you've never canvassed or just need to shake off the rust, this live training class is for you. Indivisible Chicago will show you what to expect; lead you through the process step-by-step; share tips accumulated over years of experience; and answer all your questions and concerns. And we bring friends from Chicago improv companies to add a little fun and a lot of communication savvy.

On Monday, March 23rd at 10:30 AM, sign up to attend a Relational Organizing  Training.

This training will take you through the basic steps of relational organizing:

Talking with people you know personally and persuading them to take a specific action.

Collective, non-violent, anti-authoritarian actions, please!!

Relational organizing works because 83% of people trust a cause more when it's recommended by someone they know, not by a stranger or ad. You already are a trusted messenger. This training will help you become a confident one too!

You will learn steps and resources for getting your friends, family, and acquaintances off the sidelines and onto the field where they can join you in fighting back against the authoritarian regime.

You'll be helping to mobilize the 3.5% of the population that is needed to successfully defeat the authoritarian regime through sustained action.

You'll be helping your friends get past the overwhelm or anxiety they might be feeling. Action is the antidote to anxiety!

Chicago No Kings Rally, downtown at 1:30PM in Grant Park. You can RSVP for the Chicago event HERE.
