Year End Review

There’s no doubt  about it—it's been a challenging year, but we didn’t let the bad news  get us down. Instead, we stayed connected in community, rolled up our  sleeves, and focused on organizing. Now, as we look back, it’s amazing to see just how much we accomplished.

April 5                   Hands Off Protest

75 people from the NW Bronx met up in Riverdale for sign making and marched together with tens of thousands in the NYC Hands Off Protest. Nationwide 1,400 protests drew an estimated 600,000 protestors in all 50 states.

June 14                  No Kings Protest

50 Riverdale protestors traveled together to march in the NYC protest that was estimated in the tens of thousands.  Nationally an estimated 5 million protested in >2,000 events in all 50 states.

July 17                  Making Good Trouble

On the anniversary of the death of civil rights icon John Lewis, we gathered in his honor in downtown Riverdale to make "good trouble" in protest of Trump's toxic policies.

September 29     Free Dylan Rally

Over 150 of us gathered at Johnson & 235th to protest the denial of asylum to Bronx high school student, Dylan Contreras.

October 18          No Kings II Protest

Though we only expected a couple hundred protesters in Seton Park, almost 1,000 people came from all over for our local No Kings protest.  Another contingent of ~ 50 protestors went together to the NYC protest that was estimated at 100,000. Nationally ~  7 million people spoke up at 2,700 events in all 50 states.

November 4       Election Day

We wrote more than 13,000 postcards to VA where Democrats won BIG thanks to grassroots efforts of dedicated volunteers. Many of us also canvassed in PA where Democrats won key judicial races. 

Thank you to everyone who wrote postcards, donated, phone banked, canvassed, and spread the word about key elections, events, and candidates and to all of you who came out to protest. All of it really did make a difference! Plus, these wins put us in a good position as we head into the midterms next year.

Can you help us face the challenges that lie ahead?

First, let’s take a minute to dream big. Imagine how you’ll feel on November 3, 2026—election night—when Democrats take the House and Senate. Trump’s reign of terror ends, ICE gets defunded, healthcare gets restored, and democracy gets another chance. Feel the cascade of relief, joy, and pride knowing that you had a hand in making it happen.
