The No Kings Map is Live!
Hundreds of nonviolent protests are already planned for No Kings Day on March 28, and more are being added by the hour.
What happens to communities and the individuals who live in them when the infrastructures that used to provide support—emotional, social, and economic—disappear? Beth Macy understands first-hand the implications of the transformation and will discuss her insights from both a personal and professional perspective.

ABOUT THE SERIES
2026 Spring Teach-In Series: Understanding Unsustainable Systems & Developing Alternatives
“Teach-ins” have been a cornerstone of nonviolent activism since the Civil Rights Movement, and Roanoke Indivisible is extending this approach into the Roanoke and New River valleys through a four-part Education to Empowerment (E2E) series titled, Understanding Unsustainable Systems and Developing Alternatives. The events — taking place in February, March and April — delve into the impacts of authoritarian behavior on American society and help the citizenry understand wealth inequality and the social, economic and political consequences of inaction.
Each teach-in session covers a topic within the greater framework of the impact Trump is having on modern society and the wellbeing of American citizens moving forward. The speakers for the sessions are leaders in their fields and include Professor Emeritus and author Michael Santos, former Ben & Jerry’s and Stonyfield CEO Walt Freese and author and 6th District Congressional Candidate Beth Macy.
