Resist: It's Time

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

Global economic blackout? I don't think my small farm business in Japan is going to contribute to the idiocy of the US government. Wording quibble aside, I'm happy to not support US companies on that day.

I think Global refers to "globally within the US".

It is an intersting question, but I think it is better for the reaistance movement if people outside of the US continued to work and buy things (that dont support the US).

It's a holiday in Canada, so no work for US companies. And many Canadians are already going hard on boycotting american products. Solidarity.
