INDY Week: “The local activist group was founded back in February by longtime Democrats Steve and Martha Glass. The group’s first meeting was limited to about 30 people living in the Glasses’ retirement community, Glenaire. But word soon spread. Now, Cary Indivisible has expanded beyond Glenaire to include some 700 official members, mostly “younger seniors” and middle-aged Cary residents, with even more people, of all ages, coming to protests. …
Of course, there’s a serious agenda behind the inflatable costumes and rainbow peace signs. Cary Indivisible is a microcosm of a larger, nationwide movement dedicated to preserving democracy and resisting right-wing politics. In practice, that means raising money for immigration lawyers, calling members of Congress, and canvassing neighborhoods ahead of elections.
Many Cary Indivisible members are vehemently against ICE and the elimination of DEI programs, and enthusiastically for Medicaid and universal health care. The uniting sentiment, however, is of power to the people.”
