SUMMARY:Red Wine & Blue: How to stay safe while standing up to ICE
DESCRIPTION:After weeks of protest\, the Department of Homeland Security has announced a pullback of its ICE operation in Minneapolis. \nWe saw the violence that ICE brought to the city\, and we saw how thousands of people stood against those agents – even in frigid temperatures and with their safety on the line. \nLet’s be clear\, though: ICE is not done terrorizing communities. The agency has quietly rented 150 new office spaces nationwide to begin new operations. They aren’t quitting\, and neither can we. \nStanding up against ICE is critical work\, Rebecca\, and Red Wine & Blue wants to help you prepare and feel safe if ICE comes to your town. Join our partners\, the ACLU and Democracy Security Project\, on Tuesday\, February 17\, at 7:30PM ET to learn how! \nRSVP for Protecting Our Communities from ICE: Staying Safe While Standing Up for our Neighbors on Tuesday at 7:30PM ET. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nICE is operating in many cities and suburbs of those cities across the country\, including Washington\, DC\, Memphis\, Nashville\, Atlanta\, Charlotte\, New Orleans\, Brownsville\, TX\, Las Vegas\, Los Angeles\, Philadelphia\, Newark\, Boston\, Chicago\, Detroit\, and Indianapolis. \nYou may have been wary to participate in ICE protests\, wondering what the ramifications may be. Could you be arrested? Lose your job? \nThe ACLU and Democracy Security Project will help you understand your legal rights\, including filming and engaging with ICE\, along with physical and digital safety strategies to protect yourself and others. \nYou’ll also hear directly from moms and community leaders who are organizing on the ground and getting results\, sharing practical lessons\, proven tactics\, and inspiration to help you take action locally. \nAnd we’ll give you ways to take part that don’t involve taking to the streets – or even leaving your house! \nWhether you stand up to ICE in the streets or from your computer\, we want you to be safe. Join us on Tuesday to find out how. \nSee you there!

SUMMARY:Red Wine & Blue: Let’s organize to defend public schools
DESCRIPTION:Extremists have been attacking public schools for years – and our kids are paying the price. \nAuthoritarian politicians and their billionaire backers want to control what students learn\, decide what books belong in their libraries\, and whitewash American history. \nThese extremists are interrupting our kids’ education and scaring teachers and administrators who are just trying to make sure all students can thrive at school! \nBut who exactly is behind this movement and why are they doing it? To defeat this coordinated plan to end public education as we know it – and we CAN defeat it – we need to understand the history of the movement\, the players involved\, and their plans moving forward. \nThat’s why we’ve invited Megan Hester\, National Campaign Director at the NYU Metropolitan Center for Research on Equity and the Transformation of Schools\, to share her knowledge of these movements and how to beat them. Megan’s work helps advance honest\, equitable and fully-funded public education as a foundation for multiracial democracy. \nJoin us on Thursday\, February 12 at 7:30 PM ET for a virtual event\, Inside the Authoritarian Playbook: The Coordinated Attacks on Public Education. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDonald Trump made waves by announcing his plan to dismantle the Department of Education\, but these extremist attacks started way before Trump regained power. His destruction of federal resources for education and threats to schools for their DEI initiatives and honest curricula are all part of a coordinated and well-funded playbook that’s committed to undermining public schools. \nRed Wine & Blue has tracked and battled the anti-public education movement since we were founded. We fight book bans\, support DEI and curricula that teaches our true history\, defend the rights of LGBTQ+ youth\, and support commonsense school board members. When we organize against extremists\, from Moms for Liberty to anti-public schools Secretary of Education Linda McMahon\, we win! \nWe have to keep outperforming radical school board candidates\, flipping boards\, and successfully pushing back on book bans. In 2025 Red Wine & Blue blocked extremists running for school board\, while the vast majority of candidates we supported won. But the attacks are ongoing – and are now backed by the President of the United States. We’re not letting up. \nThis Thursday\, we’ll discuss how you can fight back by showing up at school board meetings\, mobilizing communities\, and building real collective power. \nJoin us to save public schools from the extremists who want to defund and destroy them. \nSee you there! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP

SUMMARY:Florida\, Sex Ed\, and the National Threat to Religious Freedom!
DESCRIPTION:Jews for a Secular Democracy will host an important and timely webinar: “Health Under Siege: Sex Ed Erosion in Florida and Beyond!” More information and registration available HERE. \nFlorida has become a bellwether for the country. Policies first tested there are increasingly exported nationwide\, especially when it comes to public education\, religious freedom\, and the separation of church and state. What we are seeing around sex education in Florida is not an isolated debate about curriculum.  It is part of a broader effort by Christian nationalist movements to impose one set of religious beliefs through public schools\, at the expense of pluralism\, public health\, and constitutional protections. \nThis webinar will examine how sex education in Florida has been reshaped over the past decade\, how religious ideology is driving these changes\, and why this represents a clear First Amendment concern. We will explore how these policies affect young people’s health and wellbeing — and why similar efforts are unfolding in states across the country. \nHosted by our Florida initiative\, the program will feature leading experts in public health\, education\, and advocacy\, including Takeata King Pang\, Executive Director of the Women’s Foundation of Florida and co-founder of the Florida Healthy Youth Alliance. \nThis conversation is part of JFASD’s ongoing work to expose how Christian nationalism operates in real-world policy — not just rhetorically\, but in ways that concretely harm communities and undermine religious freedom for everyone. Don’t miss this one! Register HERE! \nWe hope you’ll join us and help amplify this critical conversation. \nKatie Reiter\, JFASD National Director \nLaura Rodriguez\, JFASD Florida Organizer

SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: FEBRUARY BANNED BOOK CLUB: A COLOR OF LAW
DESCRIPTION:  \nWednesday\, February 11\, 7:30PM ET \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin our February Banned Book Club as we discuss The Color of Law: The Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America by legal scholar Richard Rothstein. This groundbreaking book challenges the widely held belief that racial segregation in the United States was the result of private choices or economic forces. Instead\, Rothstein documents how federal\, state\, and local governments actively created and enforced segregation through laws\, policies\, and court decisions\, and how those choices continue to shape inequality today. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSIGN UP NOW

SUMMARY:INSIDE THE AUTHORITARIAN PLAYBOOK: THE COORDINATED ATTACKS ON PUBLIC EDUCATION
DESCRIPTION:The authoritarian playbook is targeting our public schools.

SUMMARY:Emergency Red Wie & Blue: ICE is going after Springfield\, another vulnerable community
DESCRIPTION:It’s being reported that ICE’s next surge will be in Springfield\, Ohio – the same small town Trump and J.D. Vance viciously lied about during the 2024 presidential campaign. \nAs an Ohio mom\, after seeing everything that’s happened in Minneapolis\, Portland\, Charlotte\, and other cities\, I’m scared\, angry – and ready to fight like hell for my neighbors. \nFederal agents are expected to arrive in Springfield for a 30-day surge on Feb. 4.Springfield is home to 15\,000 Haitian immigrants — 25% of the local population — who are on “temporary protected status” because Haiti is too dangerous. They are contributing immensely to the local economy and Haiti is more dangerous than ever\, but that status expires on Feb. 4\, which is why ICE is planning to head to Springfield. \nWe’ve seen enough of these ICE surges in other cities to know that our neighbors need our love and support – and we need to act quickly to stay ahead of this. We’re coming together to support Springfield and demand that ICE stops terrorizing our communities everywhere. \nJoin us with our partners on Tuesday\, February 3 at 8:30 pm ET for our Emergency Meeting: Unite for Springfield – ICE Out of Our Communities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’ll talk about lessons learned from Minneapolis and other cities and how we can use those lessons to prepare. We’ll hear exactly what’s happening on the ground in Springfield right now – schools are bracing and churches are organizing – and how we can help. \nWe’ll also hear from experts about what’s happening in the courts. A U.S. district court judge could rule by February 2 to keep Temporary Protected Status for Haitians – but the Trump administration could appeal the decision or ignore it. We’ll make sense of it all. \nSpringfield\, OH is familiar to all of us because in September 2024\, while campaigning\, Donald Trump and JD Vance peddled hateful lies about the Haitian community and extremists jumped on board. City buildings\, grocery stores\, and schools received bomb threats. Kids were evacuated and sent home. Children and families were put in danger. \nNearly 5\,000 of you signed up for our emergency Unite for Springfield event then\, and in just 48 hours\, we raised $120\,000 for the Haitian Community Help and Support Center and Springfield City School District. \nWe need to take action again.  \nOn Tuesday\, we will raise awareness about what’s actually happening in Springfield and learn how we can fight back.  \nHaitian immigrants fled their home country to escape gang violence\, hunger\, and instability. It is too dangerous for them to return\, where they may be kidnapped\, tortured\, attacked\, or killed. They bravely came to Ohio to start new lives. We will bravely stand with them against this new terror. \nThe coming weeks will not be easy for our communities\, especially Springfield\, but we will look out for each other. All families deserve to be safe and whole. We’ve spread the truth about our Haitian neighbors and rejected extremists’ attacks before\, and we will do it again. \nThank you for caring\, and standing with us. There are more of us than them. \nSee you Tuesday.

SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: REPEATING HISTORY: HOW EXTREMISTS ATTACK BLACK POLITICAL POWER
DESCRIPTION:\\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Reconstruction to the present day\, Black political progress has been met with organized backlash. The playbook hasn’t changed—question the candidate’s eligibility\, challenge their residency\, dispute the vote count\, and cast doubt on their legitimacy. Join us to hear from Dr. James Ford\, an award-winning educator and the Executive Director of the Center for Racial Equity in Education (CREED)\, to learn how these tactics are still being used today. By understanding this history\, we can spot patterns in real time\, call them out\, and defend democratic outcomes when Black candidates win. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSIGN UP NOW

SUMMARY:From Red Wine &Blue: What’s the psychology behind extremist movements?
DESCRIPTION:From the “manosphere” to “tradwives\,” extremist movements are welcoming in more and more people. They use fear and “us vs. them” thinking to persuade and push people towards extremism. But if we understand how these tactics can be effective\, we can fight back against them! \nWe’ve invited the team at Mindbridge\, the nation’s leading non-profit using brain and behavioral science to empower human rights defenders\, to help us dive into the psychology behind today’s extremist movements. They will share research that helps explain how people end up in these harmful mindframes – and what we can do about it.Join us on Tuesday\, January 27 at 7:30 PM ET for a virtual event\, Understanding Extremism: The Psychology of Radicalization. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFighting extremism and radicalization can be exhausting. But here’s the good news: the same psychological forces that allow extremist movements to thrive can also be used to defeat them. \nWe know you want to change hearts and minds. The first step is understanding the people you want to influence and the unconscious biases and stereotypes that pull us apart. Don’t miss this event! \nJoin us for this science-based perspective on political movements and social change. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP

SUMMARY:From Red  Wine & Blue: author and historian Heather Cox Richardson is back to reflect on the past year and how we can move forward together
DESCRIPTION:One year ago\, over 40\,000 of us gathered on Zoom with Heather Cox Richardson to stay grounded and focused just hours before Donald Trump was inaugurated. \nIn the 12 months since\, we’ve seen assaults on immigrants and people who want to protect them; skyrocketing prices; attacks on voting\, health care\, and reproductive rights; deadly state violence; and much more. \nBut in the face of it all\, we’ve joined together and won important state and local elections\, spoken truth to power\, and built new communities along the way. We started groups\, marched\, voted\, donated\, and didn’t back down from difficult conversations. To put it simply\, we never gave up – and our work isn’t over. \nTo help us prepare for the months ahead\, author and historian Heather Cox Richardson is back to reflect on the past year and how we can move forward together. On the first anniversary of the inauguration\, Heather will break down the chaotic assaults on our democracy\, institutions\, and everyday citizens and help lay out where we can go from here. This conversation is not just about naming what’s gone wrong; we are calling out positive changes and ways to take meaningful action. \nJoin us Tuesday\, January 20 at 7:30 p.m. ET for an important virtual event\, Stand Together w/ Heather Cox Richardson: One Year Post-Inauguration. We will recommit to taking meaningful action against a lawless government!  \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom the 2025 elections to cracks that are forming in the MAGA movement\, Heather will share why she believes people are turning away from extremism in favor of democratic values\, truth\, and community. \nWhether you are angry\, anxious\, or fearful\, now is the time to channel those feelings into action. Join us as we recommit to bringing positive change to our country and our communities. \nRSVP for Stand Together w/ Heather Cox Richardson now! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP

SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: How We Choose Who’s in Charge
DESCRIPTION:Determining who ends up in power isn’t always as simple as some of those songs we learned in elementary school made it seem. With some state primary elections right around the corner\, we’re starting our Civics Salons right away to help you feel confident and ready. \nJoin us on Thursday\, January 15 at 7:30 PM ET for our first Civics Salon of the year\, Voting 101: How We Choose Who’s In Charge. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHave you ever wondered why our elections work the way they do? And why does it seem like some votes count more than others\, especially when the stakes are high? \nWe’ll break down the basics about how our voting systems work\, including things like ranked choice and proportional voting. You’ll leave this Voting 101 session with a clearer understanding of these systems and how they help shape our political leadership. \nJoin us for this informative look at how we vote in the U.S. and who decides all the rules we follow. \nWe’ll look at how our voting districts are created and why some of them look like snakes and ducks. You might be surprised by how we got here and why battles over redistricting and gerrymandering are still being fought today. \nThe history of voting rights in America hasn’t always been as fair as we’d like to think\, so we’ll also discuss what reforms could make our systems live up to the promise of our representative democracy. \nWe’ve got a lot of work to do to win some pivotal elections this fall\, so let’s get back to basics first and make sure we all feel informed and ready to go.

SUMMARY:Red Wine & Blue:Level-up your storytelling for change
DESCRIPTION:Facts and data matter when it comes to shaping our opinions\, but our emotions drive us first\, and it’s stories that really move us. What is more persuasive – hearing that 22 million people saw their health insurance premiums double when the Affordable Care Act subsidies expired\, or hearing the story of your friend who had to put off a necessary medical procedure because she couldn’t afford her insurance? \nWe’ve all seen and felt how powerful it can be to hear other people’s stories\, especially when it comes to influencing and inspiring others to think differently or consider other points of view. \nThat’s why good storytelling is necessary in our journey to making the world a better place\, and we’re going to talk about how to do it! \nRSVP for The Art of Storytelling: How to Influence and Inspire Others on Tuesday\, January 13 at 7:30 p.m. ET. \nJoin us as we talk with Dr. Melanie Green from the University of Buffalo. She’s an expert on narratives and stories\, and how storytelling can change the way people think and behave. She has studied how stories can persuade thinking on social issues\, so her insight will be invaluable! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen I think about what has shaped my own values and made me so passionate about our work\, I think about people – the people I love and the people I’ve met here who have generously shared their stories with me with trust and vulnerability. \nPersonal stories are what make people really understand the impact of laws and policies at a deeper level\, and care about it. That’s why stories are one of the most powerful tools for change. \nThis event will help you sharpen your own storytelling skills so that you can level-up the way you talk to others about politics. Join us to learn what makes a story truly compelling and how to use personal stories to move people in ways that data alone can’t. \nYou’ll learn how to craft narratives that connect with people emotionally\, communicate your values\, and inspire others to care the same way that you do. We’ll give you the practical tools and the confidence you need to influence others and make an impact. \nYou can use these skills anywhere\, whether you’re talking to a friend\, mobilizing people in your community\, or leading an organization. Our power is in our stories\, so let’s learn together from Dr. Green and make an even bigger impact this year.

SUMMARY:From Red Wine & Blue: Join our special guest\, Jessica Yellin
DESCRIPTION:If you’re like me\, you pride yourself on staying informed on the news of the nation. But it feels like the line between staying informed and just doomscrolling is getting really blurry for me! \nEvery time I open my favorite apps\, it’s just wave after wave of depressing and enraging content. So how do we know what to focus on\, and what to ignore? \nJessica Yellin is coming to Red Wine & Blue to tell us how to stay on top of the news without having a panic attack! \nJessica is an award-winning journalist and founder of News Not Noise\, a podcast with nearly 1 million followers. She’s joining us on Tuesday\, December 9\, at 7:30PM ET to cut through the clutter\, help spotlight the stories that actually matter\, and give you tips on staying up-to-date going forward. \nRSVP now for The Top 5 News Stories You Haven’t Heard with Jessica Yellin on December 9! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTrying to keep up with all of the news can feel like whiplash\, and it seems like more chaos is popping up every day. \nJessica is the expert we need in our lives right now. \nShe spent 17 years working in TV news\, including as Chief White House Correspondent for CNN. When she realized that TV media was really good at generating anxiety and ratings but not so much at giving us the news we wanted\, she launched News Not Noise to break down current events with clarity\, and cut out the noise. \nJessica is going to let us in on five stories you probably haven’t heard about (and why!)\, and she’s going to tell us how to find information that leaves us calm and ready to take action. \nJoin us on Tuesday at 7:30PM ET for The Top 5 News Stories You Haven’t Heard with Jessica Yellin! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP
