The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Only community will save us from chaos. Together, we can resist!
Our coalition has now grown to nearly 2,000 federal employees. During the last term, the Trump administration initiated searches for resistance members. This is a reminder to use only our designated communication channels.
