Grass Roots Parties and the Political Landscape

Feb 27 2020
Here we begin to flush out the Political Activism Landscape
With emphasis – not on Political Differences and Political Parties

Instead we place focus on “Being Heart Centered”
And at Heart Plan Vision that means, always doing our “inner shadow work” as needed
“As Within So Without” – the enemy is “not out there” – Look Within

Forgiveness Respect Compassion

We Direct our Activism To
Empowerment of the People
Being sure the citizens are well informed
Respecting we each have different ways of viewing the world
While at same time honoring the HEART and coming from LOVE and JOY
Organizing and reaching out to citizens – what is needed to mobilize people to vote
What is needed so that all citizens have easy access to voting – and accurate voting counts

Let’s begin the Organizational Structure for Grass Roots Parties – Politics Sector
Here are some Initial Ideas

Develop a Facebook Private Group – and Other Organizing Platforms if they seem better
Identify 3 Individuals that will represent each State in the U.S. (to begin with)

Research the Organizing that went on after Trump was elected
And duplicate and replicate

By the week before the midterm elections, more than 42,000 women had reached out to EMILY’s List expressing interest in running for office, the PAC’s president Stephanie Schriock told BuzzFeed News. In the 2016 election cycle, only 920 women reached out to EMILY’s List for help running.
