Mission Statement
Escondido Indivisible is a grassroots group dedicated to affecting changes in our local community. We strive to take peaceful and focused actions to guard our democracy against authoritarianism, and we rise together, indivisible, to actively resist efforts to dismantle our civil liberties, democratic institutions, and social and environmental protections.
Brief Biography
Escondido Indivisible was formed on January 26, 2017 and inspired by the Indivisible Guide to mobilize locally to resist Trumpism and affect changes locally. We protested against Trump and his authoritarian administration for four years and beyond, pressured our congressional representative for accountability and helped mobilize voters to flip our city council in 2018 to blue. We also spearheaded a local coalition to save our public library from privatization and outsourcing in 2017 (we were unsuccessful, but the efforts still left a big impact in our community and subsequent election in 2018). And we run a weekly newsletter going on for 5 years.
