Be sure to bring your bottled water donations for the Denton Water Project to help keep the homeless hydrated during our brutally hot summer. We will also continue working through Timothy Snyder’s book “On Tyranny — 20 Lessons from the 20th Century.” Come learn 20 different strategies we can use to defend our democracy against an authoritarian government and preserve our freedoms. The book is available at most libraries, bookstores, and for purchase online. It’s a very short book (128 pages) that can be read or listened to by audiobook in under 2 hours. Folks who want to can feel free to read or listen to it beforehand, but it is NOT a prerequisite. We are taking it in chunks at a time. Come learn with us how to resist fascism effectively together.
