SUMMARY:ICE Out For Good
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, January 7th\, an American citizen was killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minneapolis\, Minnesota. This killing is part of a broader pattern of unchecked violence\, impunity\, and abuse carried out by federal immigration enforcement agencies against members of our communities. \nA broad coalition of groups across the country is calling for a coordinated Ice Out For Good Weekend of Action on Saturday\, January 10th and Sunday\, January 11th to demand accountability\, honor the life lost\, and make visible the human cost of ICE’s actions. \nA core principle behind all ICE Out For Good events is a commitment to nonviolent action and no civil disobedience. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values\, and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind\, including those legally permitted\, should not be brought to events. This is a permitted event. \nIndivisible is managing data and communications with participants. By registering\, you agree to receive info from Indivisible about the event\, receive communications via e-mail or SMS message from Indivisible\, and receive any other updates and opportunities to take action or support ICE OUT FOR GOOD partner organizations. You also agree to have any data entered in this registration collected by Indivisible.

SUMMARY:Moms For Good: Joining Together To Stop ICE.
DESCRIPTION:Renee Nicole Good was killed by an ICE agent after dropping her child off at school. Just like other moms from Raleigh to Portland to Chicago\, Renee was simply looking out for her neighbors. This tragedy is devastating and frightening\, and it’s okay to feel overwhelmed. But fear is also being used to silence us and disinformation is being spread to intimidate people from speaking out. We will not let fear win. As moms\, neighbors\, and friends\, we have to stay in the fight. We will remain committed to the values that have brought women across the country together. Join Red Wine & Blue and other mom and caregiver groups as we come together to process what’s happening\, support one another\, and take concrete steps to protect our communities\, stay safe\, and demand accountability. We will fight together. Join us!

SUMMARY:Grand Rapids Against ICE/Trump
DESCRIPTION:Are you MAD enough? \nThe foundations of this country: liberty\, the pursuit of happiness\, rule of law\, and the rights of citizens are being undermined in ways that should alarm every American. \n  \nJust this week\, multiple US citizens were fatally shot by federal immigration agents in Minneapolis and Portland\, sparking outrage and national protest as communities across the country demand answers and accountability. \n  \nThis isn’t abstract or non-personal anymore. It’s real. It’s happening on American soil. It’s happening to our own neighbors. IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU. \n  \nBut despair should not be our response. Waiting for someone else to act is not an option. The time to make our voices heard is now. \n  \nJoin me in Grand Rapids for a peaceful protest to stand up for democracy\, accountability\, and the rights of all citizens. \n  \n📍 Location: Rosa Parks Circle\, Grand Rapids \n  \n(near the intersection of Monroe AVE and Monroe Center) \n  \n🗓 Date & Time: 1/14/26 5-7pm \n  \nWe will not be silent while our constitutional rights are eroded and while federal power goes unchecked. This is our moment to be loud\, to speak. \n  \n✊ Stand up. Take action. Make your voice count.

SUMMARY:January Banned Book Club: The Mermaid\, the Witch and the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Author Maggie Tokuda-Hall will join RWB to discuss her award-winning novel\, The Mermaid\, the Witch\, and the Sea. This is a fantasy novel about a pirate named Flora (disguised as Florian) and a highborn lady\, Evelyn\, who fall in love aboard a ship where the crew plans to sell the passengers into slavery. Evelyn and Florian form an unlikely bond while the novel weaves magic\, betrayal\, romance\, and a daring escape that challenges oppressive power and rigid societal roles. The story explores themes of colonialism\, gender identity\, and survival. The book has been challenged (and in some cases removed) from school and library collections primarily because it contains graphic violence\, sexual themes\, and LGBTQ+ content.

SUMMARY:RWB Civics Salon: Voting 101 - How We Choose Who's in Charge
DESCRIPTION:Ever wonder why some votes seem to count more than others or why certain districts look like squiggly snakes on a map? Join us for an informative look at how we vote in the U.S. and who decides the rules. Knowledge is power! We’ll break down the basics of how our voting systems work from the traditional “winner-take-all” elections to ranked choice\, proportional voting\, and what gerrymandering really means. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how these systems shape our democracy\, who ends up in power\, and what reforms could make elections fairer and more representative in our country.

SUMMARY:Free America Walkout
DESCRIPTION:One year into Trump’s second regime\, we face an escalating fascist threat: raids on our communities\, troops occupying our cities\, attacks on immigrants\, families torn apart\, mass surveillance\, and terror used to keep us silent.  It is time for our communities to escalate as well.\n\n2025 was a year of marches that showed our collective strength. And as the threats grow\, our movement must evolve and escalate. Trump and his allies have already made clear that a second term would bring a deeper wave of misogyny\, racism\, xenophobia\, and violence than the first. \n\nOn January 20\, we call on our communities to organize teams\, call your neighbors and classmates\, and turn your back and walk out on fascism. Host mutual aid planning meetings\, organize public service\, but walk out to block the normal routines of power\, and make the stakes real. This is a protest and a promise.  In the face of fascism\, we will be ungovernable. \n\n★ We walk away from fascism. ★  \n\n★ We walk towards a Free America. ★ \n\n★ We fight for a future that belongs to us all. ★\n\n★ Everybody in\, nobody out. ★\n\n★ Welcome to the Free America Walkout ★ \nMeet in front of the Van Andel Arena\, and we will march through our city\, making sure to pass by the courthouse and the police station downtown. Bring signs\, or whatever else you may need. Remember\, this is a peaceful protest. We will not let our government paint us in any other light. We are enraged\, but we are intelligent! It’s about what is right\, and wrong!
