Unite & Rise 8.5: Thank you Local Leagues!

Unite & Rise 8.5 is backed by research that shows movements with strong civic engagement—and sustained nonviolent action—are the most effective path to lasting change. You are laying that foundation with every march, every meeting, and every mobilization. We see your work. We are inspired by your courage. And we are grateful for your leadership.
