About this event
Every week during the AZ Legislative session we provide thoughtful and perceptive insights on issues, legislation, and state & local politics.
What can we do to fight back against MAGA? REQUEST TO SPEAK – RTS
Request to Speak was designed by the State of AZ to help lobbyists communicate with legislators. Citizens are encouraged to use it as it’s a great way to let lawmakers know if we support a bill.
Sign up through CEBV!!! Join the Happy Hour.
Please RSVP here for the Zoom link: https://bit.ly/CEBVHH2025
Please contact Susan Shapiro if you want to attend!
About this event
Our special guest speaker is Harrison Redmond from the ACLU of AZ. He will tell us what the ACLU is working on, what our rights are, and how we can help.
Join Indivisible Northern AZ’s monthly Community Gathering to learn about what we can do to push back against policies that are harmful to our local community, our state and our nation.
We will discuss what tactics have been working and how we can stay in the fight.
The onslaught of news, the chaos out of the White House, it’s all meant to overwhelm us. It’s a deliberate strategy to sow confusion and make us believe we are powerless to fight back.
The antidote: Coming together in community to process what’s happening, to sift through what’s important and what’s just noise, and coalesce around strategies for fighting back.
Join Indivisible co-founders Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg each week as we carve out an hour to discuss what’s happening and – more importantly – what’s the plan.
To attend, please email Shelley Haiken
or call Toby at 928-274-0389 for LOCATION INFORMATION
Antonia Scatton will talk about how the way we communicate shapes public opinion. Rather than telling people what we think they want to hear, we have to listen to them and make the case for what we know to be morally right. This is the best way to both win political campaigns and forge a better, kinder and more mutually responsible society. To do this effectively, we need to understand critical facts about how language impacts the brain and how our public debate actually works. Learn how to push the right buttons, with hope instead of hate.

Yavapai Dems Sponsor a Veterans Town Hall
Join a platform for veterans and VA employees to voice their concerns.
We’re giving veterans and VA employees a much needed platform to voice their concerns about the impact of DOGE cuts. The public is welcome at this free event, so please join us in standing up for our Veterans!
Yavapai County is home to nearly 25,000 veterans. The Bob Stump Department of Veterans Affairs is one of the largest locations serving veterans in Northern Arizona, with over 1,000 employees. Many veterans, their families and caregivers, VA employees, veterans organizations and community members are alarmed by the Trump administration’s recent threats to terminate essential employees and reduce funding for necessary care and benefits. It is critical that we hear directly from those affected and support our veterans of Yavapai County.

Greetings film afficionados, let’s keep our face to face gatherings going with a conversation about:
The film No Other Land was made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective, named Best Documentary Film at the Academy Awards and was the year’s most decorated documentary. The film makers documented the demolition of homes in Masafer Yatta in the West Bank from 2019-2023, creating a “visual record of what was happening” that Alissa Wilkinson, in her The New York Times review, called “audacious and devastating.” We’re hoping you were able to catch the film when it played at the Mary D. Fisher in late March since as you know, the film has had a difficult time finding a US distributor (which introduces much asked questions about documentary films and market distribution).
Open DORR
Come in and get a breath of fresh air, hang out, mingle, snack, and even bitch if you need to! Pizza and soft drinks will be served. This event will occur on the 30th of every month.
ResisDance!
Need some fun?
Yes, you’re furious, upset and heartbroken over the outrages perpetuated by the Trump/Musk administration. But…don’t you need a break?? Relax, let off some steam and party with the welcoming DORR community. It’ll do wonders for your mental health!
Let the music of DJ Jeanie Carroll, dancing, and delicious delectables, transport you to a happy place. Joy is a form of resistance!
Your sponsorship and ticket purchase will help DORR elect Democrats who will resist the MAGA agenda. Sponsors will receive special recognition of their generosity at the dance. Many thanks to our generous sponsors!
This is a time we really need to support each other! Hope to see you on the dance floor and at the protests!
