Long-time Atlanta community organizer here. Protest, always, constantly IMO. And also hook up with organizations that are committed to the protection of minority rights, especially grassroots organizations, early and often. I've been doing leftist activism for most of my adult life. It has been oftentimes difficult. It can be awkward. It has also been good. You meet some very kind and very brave people. Pressuring the state and institutional forces with your voice, your body, your money, and a willingness to commit to civil disobedience has absolutely resulted in concrete gains on every level of government, everywhere. US politics have always been a shitshow, and people are clearly in for a load of suffering. And few gains in civil and human rights have ever been won by asking nicely. If you have the resources, the time, and the courage, I would strongly encourage you to commit to taking action, both in the short term while the iron is hot and in the long term as well.
