Hands Off Rally

Indivisible Greater Vancouver

Join Indivisible Greater Vancouver and MoveOn-Clark County as we rally to tell the Trump administration to keep their "hands off" all of our vital services and communities! Let's raise our voices - and our signs - to tell the Trump administration to keep their hands off our: Social Security Medicaid and Medicare Public Media: NPR, PBS Trans Community BIPOC community National Parks Veterans Services Immigrants Autism/Disability Community Federal Workers -and more! When we stand together in public to affirm our rights we let our community know that we stand with them. We'll gather at the southwest corner of Mill Plain and Chkalov in Vancouver, on the sidewalk by the Fred Meyer Shopping Center. Bring a sign that lets everyone know what you want the administration to keep their hands off! PLEASE NOTE: Fred Meyer and the businesses in the Trader Joe's/Shari's parking lot have asked us not to park in their lots. There is on-street parking on 117th (behind Petco) and 2nd (behind the Starbucks shopping area). About Indivisible Greater Vancouver (IGV) Indivisible Greater Vancouver (IGV) is committed to promoting nonviolent advocacy and activism to create lasting social and political change. Founded in 2017 as a chapter of the national Indivisible movement to resist the Trump agenda, IGV has since expanded its focus to include local and Washington state grassroots organizing. We work in partnership with organizations that share our values, including Clark County 50501, MoveOn Clark County, LULAC, Pasitos Gigantes, and the Vancouver chapter of the NAACP. Together, we build community power rooted in justice, equity, and solidarity. IGV is deeply committed to nonviolence as both a principle and a strategy. We at IGV strongly believe that peaceful, nonviolent activism offers social movements the most power to effect change. Through peaceful protests, we set an example of making our voices heard with dignity, empowered by truth. IGV does not condone intimidation, threats, vandalism, interference with access to business or any other lawless actions. If instigators or opponents attempt to violate our commitment to non-violence, we will try to de-escalate and end the event if needed to maintain a safe environment.

It is powerful.
