Welcome to the

resistance

BuildTheResistance.org is your real-time window into the growing movement fighting to defend our country and communities against Trump and his wealthy cronies who are undermining the constitution and rule of law to advance an agenda made by and for the 1%. We visualize the resistance by compiling examples of how people can…

1. Resist

3. Win

See how the resistance is already succeeding!

Unchecked abuse of executive power erodes the rule of law, upends civil liberties, and creates a culture of fear and intimidation. Strongman politics depend upon your silence and isolation. But we will not be silenced.

Resistance is not just for activists and the courts. Building the world we want requires everyday actions by everyday people. From protests in the streets to political advocacy, from whistleblowers to mutual aid networks, from security guards blocking Muskrats to librarians fighting censorship — the resistance is here. Stay informed. Get organized. Use your voice. Use your skills. Resist.

“When tyranny becomes Law,
rebellion becomes duty.”

— Attributed to Thomas Jefferson, as expressed in the Declaration of Independence of the United States

BuildTheResistance is not an organization. It is, first and foremost, a call to action. It is a resource hub and movement megaphone – amplifying actions, resources, and victories that protect democracy, equality, and human rights. Our volume is designed to drown out the doom, despair, and isolation that feeds fascism.

This site is being built by concerned everyday people, in fact, you can be one of those people too. Help to co-create this hub by anonymously adding resources and actions on the “Resist”, “Build”, and “Win” pages. You can add to the Resistance Feed by posting on social media with #BuildTheResistance.
