Our Commitment to Nonviolence
Saugatuck Douglas Area Indivisible (SDAI) is a peaceful, nonviolent group working for positive change. We strictly prohibit weapons, violent language, or threats at any of our events, rallies, or gatherings.
We coordinate with local law enforcement and obtain necessary permits to ensure our events are safe, lawful, and respectful—for our supporters, the public, and any counter-protesters.
We ask all participants to act peacefully and lawfully at all times.
Disclaimer
SDAI only takes responsibility for events we organize. When we share information about events hosted by other groups, it is for awareness—not endorsement. The organizing group is solely responsible for those events.
Michigan Indivisible Collaborative - Do'ers, Organizers, & Admins
This meeting is for the folks who are behind the scenes doing the planning, organizing, administrative tasks, and ‘stuff’ that has to get done for Indivisible groups in Michigan.
We’re a new working group trying to help each other and leverage what we know to move us all forward faster!
No Kings Protest II
This protest is co-hosted by the Saugatuck Douglas Area Indivisibles and the Holland Zeeland Indivisible groups.
In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.
Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.
The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.
📍 Where: Centennial Park
Practice for the Douglas Halloween Parade
Join us to coordinate and rehearse our performance for the Douglas Halloween Parade for Adults. Each year the parade draws around 20,000 people to downtown Douglas, Michigan for this extraordinary event. Many photos and videos are shared to social media that go all the way around the world, so let’s give them something to SEE!
Bring your large protest signs if you have them. We want to focus on aspirational messaging about the democracy we all want and deserve! Please avoid any negative messaging. Our goal is to reach as many people as we can via social media and ideally mainstream media.
The float will have the Statue of Liberty along with other characters in front and protestors will perform a coordinated “walk” down the route. We’re stopping just shy of a dance, but it will be fun!
Saugatuck Douglas Area Indivisibles Meeting
The Saugatuck Douglas Area Indivisibles group is hosting an event on Christian Nationalism on October 21st, at the First Congregational Church of Saugatuck at 7pm.
Rev. Sarah Terlouw (First Congregational church) , Rev. Dr. Jay Johnson (All Saints Episcopal Church), Rev. Jody Betten (Douglas Congregational, UCC) will be presenting and then participating in an open panel discussion on this topic. Together they will help define what Christian Nationalism is and explore how it threatens American Democracy and the mainline protestant church today.

This Isn't Just a Climb - It's a Call to Action!
Five of us are climbing Mt. Baldhead to raise money for Saugatuck-Douglas Area Indivisible, because our democracy needs more than hope — it needs action. (This majestic Sand Dune has 303 steps, we will complete 5 rounds each. That would be equivalent to 77 flights of stairs or 1515 steps for each climber.)
Vigil for Democracy
Join us for an evening of reflection, resilience, and community at the Vigil for Democracy. Together, we’ll lift our voices through music, speakers, and poetry as we gather in solidarity during this challenging time. This is a chance to connect, share hope, and stand united for the values of democracy, justice, and freedom. All are welcome—come be part of this powerful moment.
Bring a chair and candle.
If it rains we will move to the First Congregational Church of Saugatuck.

Trans Rights Die In - Lansing
Gender-affirming care for minors has ended at Corewell, U of M, Trinity, and every other major provider in Michigan. There is no longer a single healthcare provider in the state that is providing these services. This means thousands of trans kids have been cut off from the care that keeps them alive. We know what happens when youth are denied this care: suicide rates skyrocket, families are shattered, and entire communities grieve children who should still be here.

Direct Action: will cover threats and potential impacts on vulnerable communities in our area and beyond, and will teach people how to properly identify ICE and what to do in the case that there is an ICE raid in neighboring communities, and how we as allies can take action in this moment.
