    You need to change your media diet. Here are a few recommendations:

    • If you’re into news sites, then add a few that have a little more “independent” coverage: E.g., The Guardian.
    • If you’re into social media, then you need to go out of your way to subscribe to local resistance groups and/or individuals that cover local protests.
    • If you’re interested, get involved with your local resistance groups! Do a search for “Indivisible” + [name of your city] as a place to start. This could mean going to meetings or it could be as easy as keeping up with a Signal thread.
    • Find sites that cover local protests. Example: Mobilize. This is also a good way to find local resistance groups; look for protests and then look for the groups that are organizing them.

    The bottom line is that you’re going to have to do a tiny bit of work to get plugged in to the resistance. Once you do, the protests and actions you care about will show up on your radar.
