Welcome to ACTC

Friends,

We know you share our frustration with the direction of the country since the election of Donald Trump, again. There is a lot we are unsure of, but we are certain that we need to cling to hope, and the only way for us to do that is to take positive action.

We must remember Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous words, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." The country is going in the wrong direction, but if we work together, we will continue to bend the arc.

So, how do we do that? We have established a political action club called Action Collective TC (ACTC). While it’s based in Traverse City, Michigan, many of our action items will be statewide or national, so you don’t need to live in Traverse City to be a member. ACTC will post monthly action items and plan monthly social gatherings. By joining the group, you commit to try to complete all the action items you can.

If you would like to ask questions or would like to talk to somebody more directly, please email actioncollectivetc@gmail.com.

Thanks for considering being part of Action Collective TC.
