Take action at Tesla showrooms everywhere.
Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines.
Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk.
Stopping Musk will help save lives and our democracy.
The stakes couldn’t be higher. No one is coming to save us—not politicians, not the media.

We are working with other groups across the country as we host a Tesla Takedown event. We will be protesting peacefully on the sidewalk in front of the dealership.

Park at Lowe’s Home Improvement near the sidewalk.  Bring signs. Walk along the sidewalk like any other pedestrian.

Join us as we update everyone on the worst and best bills coming out of the NCGA during this session! We will be joined by a few members of the Guilford NCGA delegation (line up pending) as well as Nicole Quick with Carolina Forward!

This event - a collaboration between Indivisible CLT and Neighbors on Call - should be excellent! The 2024 NC election data from FLIP NC is IN and we are so thrilled to be able to have a virtual data analysis session with Amy Cox and Briana Brough. Plan to learn about the 2024 impact of ICLT canvassing, postcards, and other efforts made in HD 105, SD 42 and all the way up the ballot. With this information we will be able to map the way to victory in 2026 and beyond! No one does data like FLIP NC - don’t miss this!

Come together to meet fellow members and volunteers, discuss goals and plans for 2025 and activism opportunities! We'll have snacks (of course!) and raffles, because who says we can't have a good time together while engaging in grassroots activism? We'll even set up a kind of "activism speed dating" so you can learn about who's doing what, and how to find a fit for your own skills and interests.

Whether you’re a long-time activist or total newbie, there’s a place for you. Let us help you find a way to channel your anger or alarm into action!

Bull City Indivisible, Wake County Indivisible, Democracy Out Loud, and Triangle Indivisible Daily Call to Action are organizing an event for constituents to discuss Senator Tillis’s enabling of the Trump-Musk agenda and their support for gutting programs like Medicaid to line Musk’s pockets.

There will be speakers and opportunities for questions that we will deliver to the senator's office.

Kid friendly. Graciously hosted by Raleigh Brewing Company.

We are kicking off the 2025 Meet Ups with an excellent topic that is becoming a bigger part of our life every day - Artificial Intelligence! Join us as we learn to embrace AI in our resistance work! We will learn the possible benefits AND pitfalls of using AI in performing research as well as composing letters and public comment scripts.

Stand Up For Science 2025 is a national day of action calling for robust, interference-free scientific research and policies that ensure science serves everyone. In Washington, DC, state capitals, and cities around the country, people will gather to advocate for continued government support for science, defend against censorship, and push back on attacks against diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility in research and education.

North Carolina will be particularly hard hit by cuts to science, given the large amount of tech and research in the Triangle: Duke alone is facing a nearly $200 million annual reduction in funding.

Join the County Democratic Parties, Camel City United Indivisible, and other local Democratic groups as we stand united to hold Senator Tom Tillis accountable to his oath of office! We will gather at Senator Tillis' Greensboro office to demand action on the issues that matter most to North Carolina families.

This is our chance to raise our voices and show that we stand for justice, accountability, and representation. We’ll come together in peaceful solidarity to send a clear message that our democracy is worth defending.

Why It Matters: Senator Tillis has the responsibility to represent all of his constituents, not just those who align with his political views. This rally is an opportunity to remind him of his oath of office and ensure that he works for the good of all North Carolinians.

What to Bring: Signs with respectful messages holding Senator Tillis accountable, your voice and determination to make a difference with a family-friendly and inclusive spirit.

Together, we can make our voices heard. Let’s show up and demand that our leaders stay true to their commitments to the people they represent. Register here.

After multiple recounts and election audits in 2024, North Carolina voters elected Justice Allison Riggs to the NC Supreme Court. In a bid to overturn that result, her opponent, Jefferson Griffin, is pressing the courts to disenfranchise over 60,000 lawful North Carolina voters.

It's the people's turn to say: reject Griffin's challenges — and respect our votes!

Join the growing opposition against Griffin's challenges, raise your voice at rallies happening across the state, and let's build a pro-democracy movement. Register here to receive important event details.
