Our goal is to engage Democratic

voters, educate them about upcoming

realize how important it is to sign up,

which is why these conversations at

the door are so critical to boosting

turnout in both the primary

INTERFAITH FREEDOM VIGIL

AND SIGN-WAVING PROTEST

Join the Florida Interfaith Coalition

and allies for a Freedom Vigil as we

stand in solidarity with immigrant

families and demand an end to the

detention and deportation of our

nonviolent, law-abiding immigrant

community neighbors, siblings, and

friends. Around the state, including

the Everglades, people gather at the

same time each week outside local

jails and detention centers, where

immigrants await transfer and

deportation. We believe that our

immigrant neighbors should not be

held at these jails. It diverts resources

from our local budgets to separate

families and disappear people with no

due process. We pray for family

reunification and justice for all

immigrants. Together, we affirm that

justice, compassion, and the rule of

law must apply to everyone—

regardless of immigration status.

Mass deportation policies don’t just

tear families apart; they set a

dangerous precedent that threatens

the constitutional rights of all

Americans. When due process is

denied to one group, the foundation of

democracy itself is weakened. By

coming together in public prayer,

witness, and solidarity, we send a

clear message: Our communities

believe in fairness, dignity, and

accountability. This is a peaceful,

family-friendly event featuring

interfaith clergy, moments of

reflection, and opportunities

to take action.

And please bring a donation to help

our neighbors in need: maseca (masa

flour), corn husks, rice (1 lb bag),

vegetable oil, corn tostadas, dried

lentils (1 lb bag), dried red beans (1 lb

bag), and pickled/canned jalapeños.

Monetary donations are the most

direct and helpful support because

they allow flexibility in meeting

urgent needs and providing fresh

foods. You may donate here.

RISE UP/SING OUT!

song, solidarity, and action. Featuring

an all-star line-up of performers, this

90-minute concert event will celebrate

the freedoms guaranteed by our First

Amendment—of speech, religion,

press, assembly, and protest—and the

people power that both fuels these

rights and is essential to guarantee them.

Even as authoritarians increase their

attacks on our freedoms and

communities, we see examples across

the country of people rising up

together, taking action, and turning

back those forces.

The event will be streamed with watch

parties all across the country—so

wherever you are, you can sing along,

find inspiration in the performances,

USING ELECTIONS

TO COUNTER AUTHORITARIANISM

NONCOOPERATION 101

It is not a question of whether those in

power will try to steal the elections;

the recent Callais decision makes clear

that authoritarians are already doing

everything they can to grab power and

keep us from voting. Our task is clear.

Fight, win, prove, and enforce free and

fair elections. With that in mind,

Freedom Trainers has revamped

its Noncooperation 101 Training,

to emphasize a focus on

election protection and preparedness. 

Join us for a 2-hour virtual training on

civil resistance and noncooperation.

We will cover the authoritarian threat,

how to defeat it, and especially focus

on countering the all-out assault on

our elections and freedom to vote at a

scale matching the severity of the

threat. Participants will leave with

concrete steps for taking action.

AN EVENING WITH

JEFF KINNEY AND

BRANDT ROBINSON

Did you grow up with the 

Diary of a Wimpy Kid books?

Are you old enough to vote? 

Please join author Jeff Kinney and

myself, Brandt Robinson,

a history teacher and

FL House District 13 candidate,

for an evening of fun where

attendees can:

Ask Questions

Check your Voter Status

Grab merch

Hang out, play games

This is the perfect place for new

District-13 voters to engage in a live Q&A. 

No pop quizzes. 

Just a real conversation between two

friends talking about the importance

of being engaged in democracy,  

Concessions and drinks sold

$20 per ticket, or $30 for a ticket

and an event t-shirt

Some of the most meaningful

connections we have aren’t just to

each other—they’re to the stories that

shaped us. That’s why I’m so excited

to host an evening with Jeff Kinney,

the author behind Diary of a Wimpy Kid,

for a generation that literally grew up

turning those pages—and now has the

power to turn the page in our democracy.

This will be a fun, laid-back night

where we bring people together for a

live conversation between Jeff and me

about creativity, education, and what

it means to grow up and find your

voice. We’ll have games inspired by

the humor and spirit of the world-

famous books, a chance to meet Jeff

during a book signing, and most

importantly, opportunities for voter

registration—because your voice

matters now more than ever.

This campaign is about meeting

people where they are, building

community, and making civic

engagement feel accessible and even

joyful. If you grew up with these

stories, this night is for you—not just

to look back, but to step forward.

connect, collaborate,

and stay informed.

Together, we can support our

community and stand up for the

values that make our democracy strong.

Let’s work toward a smarter, more

engaged future—together.

We meet every 3rd Saturday of the

month at 10:00 a.m. to about 11:00 a.m.

The South St. Petersburg Democratic

Club was founded decades ago to

provide camaraderie and become a

vehicle for positive social change. We

believe in fairness, justice, and

collective responsibility. Together, we

can create a healthier, more equitable

society for all.

We look forward to welcoming you!

ICE OUT OF PINELLAS

The Pinellas County Sheriff’s

Department has trained 47 deputies to

work with ICE, and 36 have

been trained as Warrant Officers.

Since the beginning of the crackdown

on immigration, which began in

January 2025, immigrants in Pinellas

have been arrested and taken to the

Pinellas County jail where they wait to

be picked up by ICE and taken to a

detention center. There are substantial

reports of human rights violations in

those detention centers. At least 70%

of those arrested have

committed no crime.

They are refugees who 

have been denied due process, a

constitutional right guaranteed to all

persons within the United States,

including non-citizens.

We demand our sheriff and other

public servants end their agreement to

work with ICE. Per the sheriff’s

department public affairs office, they

have received no money from the

federal government to compensate them.

We say No to ICE in Pinellas County.

End the 287(g) agreement.

Close the Detention Centers.

No Warehouse Detention Centers.

YOUTH CANVASSING

SUPER SATURDAY IN ST PETE!

People Power for Florida, genCLEO,

and Youth Action Fund are on a

mission to build a youth movement of

students and alumni from campuses

across the state that vote in every

single election and build a Democracy

that works for everyday people.

Not Billionaires.

When we engage with students on a

year-round basis on the issues that

matter to them, we can turn agony and

helplessness into real, meaningful

action and turn sporadic & inactive

voters into active voters and

disruptors. This is why we are starting

EARLY in 2026, knocking around

USFSP campus and making our case

for why NOW is the time

for students to rise up.

Never knocked doors before? No

worries! Our team will provide you

with all the training you need, as well

as pair you up with an experienced

canvasser, so you never have to

knock doors alone!

We will meet at Kahwa Coffee for a

quick training and material

distribution before we start the canvass.

Optional . . .

Join us for lunch on us after the event!

DEFENSE OF DEMOCRACY

2026 FILM FESTIVAL

Join us at First United Methodist

Church of Pinellas Park for a

screening of Reading the World, a

documentary that revisits Paulo

Freire’s revolutionary 1960s “Culture

Circles” in Brazil. It shows how

literacy became a powerful tool for

social empowerment and political

awareness, while also revealing the

resistance these efforts faced during a

time of political unrest. The screening

will be followed by a

community discussion of the film.

This event is more than a screening—

it’s a space for vital dialogue, shared

empathy, and community connection.

Whether you are an educator, a

parent, or a concerned neighbor, your

voice and your perspective matter.

INDIVISIBLE ST. PETE

JUNE 2026 COMMUNITY MEETING

Indivisible St Pete will hold its next

monthly group meeting on Thursday,

June 25 at 7pm in person at Allendale

United Methodist Church in the main

sanctuary. The meeting will also be

available on Zoom. The link is below.

We will be discussing our recent

events, begin planning future events

and discussing strategies for moving

forward under the current

administration and welcoming new

participants and organizers.

Also there will be a presentation by the

League of Woman Voters’ committee

advocating for the adoption of the

National Popular Vote Interstate

Compact (NPVIC) in Florida.

The NPVIC is a mechanism that would

ensure the U.S. President is elected by

the national popular vote without

requiring a constitutional amendment

or an act of Congress. The compact

takes effect once states totaling 270

electoral votes join. Currently, 20

jurisdictions representing 222

electoral votes have signed on,

including Virginia as of two months ago.

Join us to hear how this agreement

could finally topple our nation’s

bizarre system that hands a few

narrowly divided states the privilege

to choose our presidents.

Additional information regarding the

program will be updated as meeting

plans take shape. If you would like to

present at our meeting please email

info@indivisiblefl13.com

for our consideration.

Due to the nature of hybrid meetings

we cannot guarantee that people

attending via Zoom will be able to fully

participate. Therefore in-person

attendance is strongly encouraged.
