In my latest, I talk with #TeslaTakedown organizers and author @niedermeyer.online about the decentralized nature of the movement, why Musk and Tesla are vulnerable, and why Saturday's Global Day of Action matters.

Hi, my name is ____. I'm a constituent, zip code _____, phone number _____. I'm calling to ask you to speak out for and fight for the release of Mahmoud Khalil, a permanent resident who was abducted from his Columbia dorm room over the weekend in what looks like a violation of his First Amendment and due process rights. This is not only a terrible injustice to him, but it affects us all. Please speak out and fight for his release now.

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.
