This event is to help you figure out how to donate according to your vision, not a pitch for any single organization. We won't ask you for any private financial information. Bring friends who are curious about donating strategically but aren’t already deep in activist networks.

Singing Resistance, a musical grassroots collective launched in Minneapolis, gathers song leaders and singers to sing out in the face of fascism.
Why sing? For starters, singing immediately evokes an emotional response from the soul and just feels good in your body. When you sing in a group, it gives you the sense that your voice matters for the larger whole – and it does!
Singing Resistance is a mass movement of singers across the U.S.
It’s a proven (and fun) resistance strategy!
Peaceful resistance singing is just one strategy of many that should be employed in times of violent occupation, but it’s a crucial one that should not be overlooked.
We want your voice!
