One Person, One Hour, One Issue
Thank you to everyone who came down to the corner last Tuesday, we had a nice long line of folks, the cooler weather was quite enjoyable! This coming Tuesday looks like it will be nicer still. So please join us! Meet new friends, swap stories about the protests you went to 50 years ago, and give thanks that so far, we are still able to assemble in peaceful protest.
Below is the usual boilerplate protest information.
LOCATION: Public right of way, NE corner Glenwood & Brier Creek Pkwy (near Starbucks, Red Robin, in Walmart shopping center). We’ll be on the elevated grassy area along Glenwood, away from the traffic, and along the sidewalk on Brier Creek Parkway.
PARKING: Park in the adjacent shopping center parking lots but please spread out so we don’t take all the spaces nearest these businesses. They have been very tolerant of our presence; let’s keep it that way.
SIGNS: The grassy knoll area along Glenwood is elevated and safely away from traffic, giving us great visibility along and across the intersection. Don’t have a sign? We have a bunch to share!
BE KIND: This is a peaceful, non-violent demonstration, of course. That extends to avoiding any negative interactions with passers-by. Any rude gestures or angry words should be met with a smile and a wave – and never returned in kind.
Got questions? Let us know! CitizensResistingTyranny@gmail.com.
Also, consider dropping in to the Brier Creek Corner from 4 pm to 6 pm for Freedom Fridays, organized by Engaged Durhamites for Democracy. It looks and sounds like a frat party (with music and dancing!), but in a good way! If you want to get more information on Freedom Fridays, you can sign up for the Engaged Durhamites for Democracy Substack here.
