I don't know the organization behind this idea. To be honest, I am not risking my job. This event is something I thought I would never see suggested in the United States. Then again, I never thought I would see American Hitlers and The Fourth Reich either.

WE'RE NOT ASKING.

WE'RE SHUTTING IT DOWN.

NOVEMBER 25TH - DECEMBER 2ND
The largest economic blackout protest in U.S.
history begins November 25th!

- No Work - No Projects
- No Spending  - No Events
- No Restaurants 
NO BACKING OUT!!!
Prepare for the IMPACT!

To prevent “spike spending” before and after the BLACKOUT.
we ask that all participants purchase goods needed from
community-owned stores and markets leading up to and after
the dates. 

This helps with sustained impact and keeps our money out of the mega businesses’ pocckets.

COORDINATED NATIONAL PUSHBACK. MAXIMUM LOCAL IMPACT

@Methylcobalamin I hope this (or something like it) happens. I think all the people calling for it need to really agree to avoid fracturing the power/impact here. We'll see what happens.
