The route is almost finalized. Housing is coming together. Flyers are flying. And we’ve got a gritty new friend (yes, that Gritty).
The We Are America March is a reality—and it’s growing by the day.

This Week’s Wins 🎉
🗺️ Route: The full walk is being re-checked, day by day, thanks to a heroic Google Street View deep-dive and some local scouting. We're finalizing breakpoints, community events, and support stations along the way.
🏠 Housing: We’ve got confirmed housing in Wilmington (thanks to St. Stephen’s & Matthew’s Episcopal) and a pancake breakfast (!) in Silver Spring. More still needed in a few spots.
🚨 Safety & Street Medics:
We need street medics! If you know RNs, EMTs, or anyone with first aid skills—reach out now.
CPR/First Aid training coming soon.
SMASH will be supplying bulk medical gear at a discount.
📣 Outreach: Flyering has kicked off. Mobilize Zoom Q&As are now happening twice weekly to help onboard new team members. Have questions? Come ask! Thursday. 8pm ET. https://mobilize.us/s/mI8WPm
Marcher-organizer one-on-ones underway. Core Marcher group Zooms slated to start next week.
🎨 Culture & Content:
Gritty-related video content is on social
Protest songs, banned book coloring pages, and a little free library drop idea are all on deck
Still looking for social media volunteers, especially on Reddit and BlueSky
Kid Constitution team is hard at work creating our new Founding Documents
What We Need Now:
Marchers: firm up your commitment
Street medics: help us keep this march safe
Influencers: know someone? Send us names
Social content creators: even if it's just one post
Local scouts + logistics help
Every week, it’s becoming more real. Let’s keep pushing. In solidarity, The We Are America March Comms Team
