Leaders rise up during times of conflict in history. There's no leader in this movement, per se. That's propaganda. The left uses that tactic to shame the women standing up for their historic civil rights. They can write us off as "right -wing" and "Republican," which most of us aren't. They can drag Riley Gaines through the mud ,or you or Sophie. It's just an opportunity to attack women. There is a huge silent majority in this movement ,and it includes a lot of men. It's a "We The People" movement, and those like you that have stood strong and fierce at the front lines regardless of the attacks and threats are an important component. Being organized and rallying support is what is needed at his point in this war, so thank you Amy for doing that. It's not even about right or left ,or trans vs. women, it's about democracy vs. totalitarianism. Our historic women's rights have been rewritten by progressives to include gender identity. This is a top- down, authoritarian government ruling against the will of the people. We live in a Representative republic. If our policy makers don't support the will of the people, who do they support? (hint; the gender lobbies that put $$$$ in their campaigns).
We are headed to Indy in the 14th and NY on the 22 for sure. Looks like there will very likely be rallies in Atlanta, Toronto, and Dallas as well. Possibly some September events too.
I recently had a conversation with another commenter about how exhausting it is to be fighting for reality the way we are.
I recommended that he pace himself.
I've been involved in political activism since I was a child in the 1960s marching in San Francisco against the Vietnam War. Burnout is very real. It clears the decks for those who have more money than we do and a heavy investment in defeating us.
We can't afford burnout. We need longevity more than we need leaders.
So sometimes, if it seems doable, someone leads. More often, that same person follows. We can't worry about who's the best or more visible leader among us. We can only keep doing what we can do, and let the rest of our community do what they can do, and all stand with locked arms in support of reality.
We're all Chicken Little. Each one of us is just a chicken with her legs in the air. But all of us together are holding up the sky.

"I am Spartacus!"
Amy- will there be a rally in Indy? There wasn’t one last night. Is the New York rally happening there or in Indianapolis?
We are headed to Indy in the 14th and NY on the 22 for sure. Looks like there will very likely be rallies in Atlanta, Toronto, and Dallas as well. Possibly some September events too.
Where to find details for Toronto?
