A growing coalition of Boston and Massachusetts organizations is proud to present a virtual screening of **[Love, Joy & Power: Tools for Liberation](https://www.bvmdoc.com/)**, a feature length documentary about the co-founders of the Black Voters Matter Fund and the voter outreach work they did leading up the 2020 election. A 30 minute panel discussion featuring local advocates and community leaders will follow the screening to highlight what this means in Massachusetts. Both the screening and discussion will be virtual. Please ensure you sign up for the zoom registration link which will be sent out with the Mobilize confirmation. We also encourage you to join or set up your own watch party to learn in community and have your own in-person discussions! Because space is limited please only have one or two people sign up from your watch party team. If you would like assistance setting up a local Mobilize event for your watch party please contact our organizers. For more information, including a list of watch party locations, please visit **[GTLO Mass](https://goodtrouble.mass50501.org/).** Our Boston based coalition started with [True North Boston](https://www.truenorthboston.org/), [Boston Indivisible](https://www.bindivisible.org/), [Mass 50501](https://www.mass50501.org/), [Allston Brighton Progressive Mass Chapter](https://abprogressives.beehiiv.com/), [Indivisible Mass Coalition](https://indivisible-ma.org/), [Activist Evenings](https://www.activist-evenings.org/) but is sure to have grown by the time you see this.

We will decide our future. The same spirit that fueled Selma, Montgomery, and the March on Washington lives on in our unified action.* *Six years after the passing of Congressman Lewis, we're organizing an event in our community to carry the torch, continue the legacy of John Lewis, and pass it forward to future generations. Join us!* A core principle behind all Good Trouble Lives On events is a commitment to nonviolent action.

Good Trouble isn't just about protest. It's also about hope. It's about community. It's about remembering that caring for our neighbors and protecting democracy are deeply connected. Join us on July 19 as we reflect on John Lewis's legacy and recommit ourselves to the work ahead.

"What I try to tell young people is... if you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have a moral obligation to do something about it." — John Lewis Good Trouble Lives On is inspired by that call.
