The text of this post about sit-ins features this story: A sit-in is a tactic of nonviolent action that can be used to make change. A group of people sits at a specific place and refuses to leave until their demands are met. During the Greensboro Sit-ins in 1960, African-Americans sat down at a segregated lunch counter to compel the stores to end racial discrimination. They succeeded.
Greensboro Sit-Ins began on Feb 1, 1960, and led to the desegregation of lunch counters in Greensboro, NC. Learn more: www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/gr...

This article is going around, but you should know that protest alone didn't change history. Nonviolent action did, including #boycotts, #strikes, #civildisobedience, #shutdowns, #sitins, #hungerstrikes, etc. It's not just marches and protests. Know your history.

#Resistance and the #FrenchResistance have a lot to teach us because #wethepeople are now the targets of the administration. #2025 will be the year in which #wethepeople defined a new kind of resistance: #generalboycotts, #sitins, #marches and #ProtectImmigrants ... If you love this country, RESIST!

Trump, speaking to all the generals:: “President Tells Top Brass American Cities Should Be ‘Training Grounds' for Military “
That was a room of serious people who know well the immense might we have, in order to defend the homeland.
Now they’re being told to turn weapons inward? To kill Americans? Let’s see who has the courage.

Wow! One of the “YES” votes stated that this will be the best fit to work with the State Legislature in securing much needed funding. Really? Don’t you realize that FAMU as we know it is GONE, unless we take it back by unrelenting protests, boycotts and sit ins! #PeacefulProtests #Boycotts #SitIns
