Love as Action: Resisting Authoritarianism

Bearing Witness, Building Hope

Quaker public witness has stood in opposition to cruel and authoritarian actions in our country before. It is time for us to show this love in action again.

Please join the American Friends Service Committee and New York area Friends to bear witness and show resistance to the authoritarian actions in our country.

On Saturday January 17 at 12:00pm in Union Square (meet at 15th Street Meeting at 11:30 to walk over) we will meet for one hour of silent public worship. Please sign up now and we will provide updates.

Our hope is that our presence will give hope to all who see us — to show that we can choose resistance — and remind everyone of our moral obligations to one another.

Our intent is to gather monthly in communities across the country, showing our communities love in action as a public witness of our Quaker values in a time of rising fascism.

Join us!
