Yes! My friend and I attended a "hands around the mosque" event at the MCC EastBay (California) last month. It was actually raining, and it was a challenge to try to hold and umbrella while holding hands. I'm kidding, of course--it was fine to get a little wet. After rousing speeches by a Christian minister, a rabbi, the imam, and a high school kid, I was in tears. So many people came up to us to thank us for coming. The fact that we have to hold these rallies to support our fellow countrymen is ridiculous.

What the hell is wrong with our country?

Oh, they also served a delicious lunch afterwards!

I have taken my elementary-school aged kids to town hall meetings, too. Of course we are in the SF Bay Area, so we are in the "bubble." Our representatives are pretty much all democrats, and the meetings have all been great.

I am taking my kids to March for Science next month. Gotta do something...
