What is Good Trouble?
Good Trouble Lives On is a national day of action to respond to the attacks posed on our civil and human rights by the Trump administration and to remind them that in America, the power lies with the people.
Coined by civil rights leader Congressman John Lewis, "Good Trouble" is the act of coming together to take peaceful, non-violent action to challenge injustice and create meaningful change. Good Trouble is marches, protests, service work – any action where communities come together, take a stand against wrongdoings, and speak truth to power.
The civil rights leaders of the past have shown us the power of collective action. That’s why on July 17, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, we’re calling on Americans across the country to Make Good Trouble Together.
Make Good Trouble With Us
John Lewis didn’t wait for permission to demand change as an activist, or congressman — and neither will we. He taught us that nonviolent direct action is a moral force, and that we must confront injustice wherever it lives — whether in the halls of power, in the courts, or on our own streets.
On July 17, we’re sending a clear message:
In the United States, the power lies in the hands of the people. We demand an end to:
The Trump administration’s extreme crackdown on our civil rights – from our right to vote to our right to protest and speak freely.
Politicians and lawmakers targeting Black and Brown Americans, immigrants, trans people, and others with hateful, dangerous policies.
The wealthy and well-connected slashing programs that working people rely on – including Medicaid, SNAP, and Social Security – to line their own pockets.
Together, we March in Peace and Act in Power.
