Indivisible with Aaron Cofer

Join Kosta and his guest: Aaron Cofer, Community and Event Organizer for Indivisible. Indivisible Upper Cumberland is a non-partisan, issues-focused grassroots community, promoting civic engagement to hold our elected officials accountable.In this episode: We have a lot of ground to cover in this episode, but I think there’s one overarching question that sums up most of what we’re here to discuss. Does protesting work? Whether you’re on the right, left or center, we all want change. We’re in a political climate the United States has never seen before, and it’s overwhelming. How do in-person demonstrations whether they be protests, marches or simply meeting people with the same ideologies as you help to create political change? The First Amendment of the Constitution protects our freedom of speech, our freedom to assemble and our freedom to express views through protest. If this is true, why do so many people get arrested protesting? 🚨 Join Indivisible at the No Kings Protest📆 Saturday, June 14, 2025⏱️ 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM📍 Courthouse Square (300 E Spring St. Cookeville, TN) *A message from Indivisible: The purpose of this event is to send a clear message against any form of authoritarian rule or monarchy, ensuring that the United States remains a republic where power is held by the people.
