Protest on the Newcastle-Damariscotta Bridge 2/26/25

[Keep up with the news from Lincoln County Indivisible on Facebook -editor]

We arrived in Newcastle for our first protest. (Well, since the late 60’s  during the Viet Nam War and the Nixon years. In retrospect,  Nixon was a breeze as compared with trump.)

I had joined an Indivisible group just last week, and had been told that two weeks ago there were 10 protesters, and that last week there were 20. The hope was that this past Wednesday there might be 30 participants. 

Well, nearly 90 people showed up and it was so encouraging. Lots of cars traveling both ways over the bridge,  with most all of the drivers honking and waving in solidarity.

It was so gratifying to be with so many like minded people, all of us hoping to make a difference. 

We have to save Democracy.
