JOIN EQUALITY FLORIDA

AT THE 2026 BE FABULOUS

MUSIC & ARTS PRIDE FESTIVAL

Equality Florida needs your help to

reach our incredible LGBTQ+

community! With the increase in

polarity surrounding LGBTQ+ issues

in Florida, we need all hands on deck

to talk with LGBTQ supporters, collect

petitions, recruit volunteers and

educate our community!

If you are experiencing any symptoms

of COVID-19 or have been exposed to

someone with COVID-19, please do

not attend the event. Visit the CDC’s

website for more information about

coronavirus symptoms and

precautions. We will have a limited

supply of face masks available

at the event.

2001 Siesta Dr in Sarasota

RESIST FACISM WEEKLY EVENT

Join us for our weekly rally in Sarasota

to resist fascism, get ICE off our

streets, and support Social Security.

Meet like-minded people who are

standing up for our rights. Help save

the Social Security we paid for and our

families are paying for.

No Trump “ICE GOONS”

in Sarasota schools!

No concentration camps!

No kidnapping of innocent people!

This is a local, Sarasota-based,

grassroots rally by Indivisible

Sarasota. WE ARE SEEN BY 2,500-

3,000 VEHICLES EACH WEEK! We

meet outside the Social Security office,

at the intersection of Siesta Drive and

South Tamiami Trail. The big sign

there is for the restaurant, Flemings.

The rally is in the shade and during

morning rush hour, so it will be

relatively cool but with a lot of

visibility. Parking is right across Siesta

Drive in the empty shopping mall

parking lot. By persisting week after

week, we are showing the people of

Sarasota that we are in this for the

long term and will persevere as long as

necessary. Expect lots of supportive

honking of horns.

Bring your own sign about Social

Security or any other topic related to

the resistance against the MAGA

attack on our democracy. See you there!

Sunday – May 17 – 3:30 to 5:00 pm

This event’s address is private.

MEET GLENN PEARSON

CANDIDATE FOR US HOUSE

FL CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT 16

Join us for an exciting opportunity to

connect with and support Glenn

Pearson, Democratic Candidate for

the US House,

FL Congressional District 16.

Momentum is with Glenn’s grassroots

campaign: Glenn is the first and only

candidate in either party to qualify for

the race by collecting more than the

2,564 petitions required.

Glenn has spent his life standing up

for everyday people—first as a

broadcast journalist who exposed

corruption and held the powerful

accountable, and now as a small

business owner helping working

families secure their futures.

Past president of the Manatee County

Black Caucus, past vice-chair of the

Manatee County Democratic party and

a long-time local resident, Glenn has

seen firsthand how a broken political

system favors the wealthy and well-

connected while hardworking families

fall behind. That’s why he’s running

for Congress: to bring truth,

accountability, and common sense

back to Washington, and to fight for

an economy that works for everyone—

not just those at the top.

Glenn is stepping up to fight for

programs that help us: Medicare,

Medicaid, Social Security, food

assistance and programs for people

with disabilities, and our veterans. He

will fight against anything that harms

hardworking families: tariffs,

ICE and this war of choice.

Hear directly about his vision and

plans for our community. Ask

questions and share your concerns.

Meet neighbors and show your support.

RSVP today to save your seat.

Space is limited.
