Friday Tea & Coffee series

Join us for Friday Tea & Coffee!

Fill your morning cup, pull up a chair, and join our efforts to resist fascism.

Meeting first on Zoom and as we are able meeting in regional, face-to-face groups as well we gather regularly to provide inspiration and support to one another. ,

“Authoritarian power is derived from fear of repression, isolation from each other and exhaustion at the utter chaos. We’re already feeling it…Thus, for us to be of any use in a Trump world, we have to pay grave attention to our inner states, so we don’t perpetuate the autocrat’s goals of fear, isolation, exhaustion or constant disorientation.”   From: “Ten ways to be prepared and grounded now that trump has won” by Daniel Hunter

Third Act Illinois convenes this Friday morning “Tea and Coffee” series to give members an opportunity to build those trusting and sustainable relationships essential in these turbulent and isolating times.

Every Friday starting at 9:30 am, ends at 10:45 am.
