Standing up for Racial Justice and Democracy
Indivisible Central Ohio cares about racial justice, and we know you do too! Showing up to honor the memory and legacy of Congressman John Lewis on the fifth anniversary of his passing is a way to show you care and are committed to racial justice as a part of the urgent struggle to protect our democracy amidst the attacks from the Trump regime. 

Indivisible Central Ohio and Common Cause Ohio are excited to be working with several important Black-led organizations to commemorate and celebrate – and continue Congressman Lewis’s legacy of struggle for justice. Please join us at Second Baptist Church – the oldest Black church in Columbus.
