Dear Greater Orange County:
Here are your opportunities this week to get out, make connections, and take action! This weekly schedule includes protests, city council/school board meetings, community-oriented activities and mutual aid drives for basics & essentials.
Things to note this week:
We will not be holding the Rally for Democracy this Sunday 8/9 as we focus our efforts on the National Week of Action Against ALPRs kicking off on 8/16 in Costa Mesa. We’ll see you next week instead!
Weekly protests in Ladera Ranch and Rancho Santa Margarita are temporarily on hold as organizers regroup and strategize for the long term.
Event listings are collected from community groups across Orange County and do not imply endorsement. Assess your own risk before participating!
The @50501oc and @ocindivisible Rally for Democracy typically takes place at rotating locations every Sunday except the last Sunday of each month, where we hold our food drive at the Really Really Free Market Anaheim.
