Coined by civil rights leader Congressman John Lewis, “Good Trouble” is the action of coming together to take peaceful, non-violent action to challenge injustice and create meaningful change, according to the organizers of hundreds of rallies planned across the country Thursday, including Gainesville and Suwanee.
Good Trouble Lives On is a National Day of Action to respond to “the attacks on our civil and human rights by the Trump administration,” the organizers say.
“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, communities across the country will take to the streets, courthouses, and community spaces to carry forward his fight for justice, voting rights, and dignity for all.”
