Protests today

After the Noon No Kings protest at Losey & State Road, there's a 4 to 6 p.m. protest planned near an Onalaska restaurant.

SEE THE DETAILS HERE.

It's amazing and not amazing in the age of the orange one and the gaslighting and the "broligarchy." But, it can't be ignored. 

A local restaurant owner's online discussion about men versus women (https://kroc.com/wisconsin-restaurant-owner-video-protest/) makes you wonder what decade some people are living in.

The UWL Racquet report, "Angelini’s Ristorante owner defends YouTube video berating women servers amid online backlash," shows it wasn't a mistake.

Protestors will meet at the Hwy 35 roundabout near the restaurant. Park in the OmniCenter lot per organizers.

June 13 protest update

Some updates regarding the rally on June 13 from noon to 2 at Losey and State Road.

DO NOT PARK in the old Kmart lot - you might get towed.

Ride your bike OR take the bus! See RideMTU.com for routes. The #4 & #2 buses serve this area.

If you must drive, carpool! Park along side streets in surrounding neighborhoods. Do not park in business lots or block driveways or crosswalks.

AND, per Indivisible La Crosse, "remember the Wafer Food Pantry Drive, we welcome all non-perishable food donations and hygiene items."
