If you are in the Nashville area, the occupation on TN capitol hill
could use support, and more recruits at the Ida B Wells Plaza (officially Legislative Plaza). The block between 6th and 7th Ave North on Charlotte, is the front, one side is across from TPAC. Today, our 37th day of occupation, we are mourning John Lewis at the plaza. It's hot, we been jailed and harassed by Tennessee Highway Patrol (on Gov Lee's say-so) as well as Nashville Metro Police. More people, more awareness, even just bringing by ice, hand sanitizer, face masks, art supplies for protest signs, which routinely get confiscated by THP when they raid us would be very welcome.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
