Elon Musk is destroying our democracy, and he's using the fortune he built at Tesla to do it. We are taking nonviolent action at Tesla to stop Musk's illegal coup.

This is a good site for a protest:

• on a busy urban avenue between two urban neighborhoods with plenty of mostly slow car traffic;

• lots of positive honking and waving;

• ample room (about 200 yards) for hundreds of protesters with wide sidewalks and grassy margins;

• few nearby businesses to complain about our presence;

• for the safety minded, you can stand on an adjacent rail overpass behind VERY stout guardrails;

• it is overall very positive, cops don't care, no incidents so far;

• this part of Providence is largely first and second generation immigrants, including several large organizations servicing refugees and newcomers -- so this site provides an opportunity to demonstrate solidarity with those most vulnerable to Musk and Trump's attacks.

This is a large Tesla sales and service center in a strip mall. The facility is set back off the road but there is a large Tesla sign, so it is clear why we're there.

This is a sign-oriented site -- tailor your message for an audience in a car 10 - 50 feet away from you going 0 - 25 mph, just wondering what the hubbub is about. Bonus points for signs in Spanish.

Please do not park in the Popeye's lot (the only nearby business). Aim your GPS for Downing Street to find nearby on street parking.

Tesla Takedown is a peaceful protest movement. We oppose violence, vandalism and destruction of property. This protest is a lawful exercise of our First Amendment right to peaceful assembly.
