The Soros-backed Indivisible Project, organizer of the nationwide “No Kings” movement, has rolled out an activism recruitment program aimed at training 1 million anti-Trump protesters “to fight back.”
Indivisible’s virtual lesson plan, marketed as “One Million Rising,” teaches “the basics of community organizing,” mass mobilization, and “strategic non-cooperation.” Beginning as coordinated Zoom calls, the training regimen eventually mandates in-person meetings.

“Let’s get organized. Let’s stop Trump,” the sign-up portal says, citing large-scale deportations of illegal immigrants under the Trump administration.
The three-part training series began Wednesday with “Session 1: The Moment & Your Mission,” an online orientation outlining ways to resist federal government efforts. As an example, the instructors, who consider themselves “freedom trainers,” suggested “pressuring the sheriffs in their communities to not cooperate with ICE.”
By the end of the introductory call, 5,000 recruits took the “One Million Rising Pledge” to host a protest this summer.
“Session 2: How to Make it Happen,” scheduled on the night of July 30, is a do-it-yourself tutorial to coach enlistees on assembling their own “community resistance gathering” after the second session. “Learn not just our strategy, but how you can train others and get them on board,” Indivisible’s syllabus says. “This train-the-trainer session is how we get to one million.”
Recruits are provided with a protest toolkit containing tips on planning and talking points to recite when leading their local “resistance gatherings.” The 10-page guidebook instructs recruits to upload photographic proof that their event took place.
Recruits will take a crash course on campaigning in the third and final installment of the instructional programming, “Session 3: What Now?” on August 13.
“You’ll be onboarded to basic campaign design and learn how to implement it locally as well as get plugged into our next national campaign work,” Indivisible tells prospective recruits. “Your second community resistance gathering will move this action forward.”
The training modules, which serve as the next stage of Indivisible’s movement, follow-up on “No Kings Day,” a day of demonstrations last month coordinated in major cities across the country.
“One day mass mobilizations like No Kings Day are incredible shows of movement energy, but they are, by definition, confined to a single day,” Indivisible leadership wrote in an email rallying members. “To defeat MAGA, we’re going to have to mobilize more people, and we’re going to have to do it on a sustained basis. That’s where One Million Rising comes in.”

“If we can motivate, train, and equip this movement in the practice of strategic non-cooperation,” Indivisible’s call-to-action continues, “we can disrupt, delay, and even, at times, make it impossible for this administration to enact corrupt policy.”

Indivisible is a tax-exempt “social welfare organization” bankrolled primarily by Open Society Foundations (OSF), the nucleus of the George Soros grant-giving nexus. Between 2017 and 2023, the 501(c)(4) raked in more than $7.6 million in funding from the foundation, according to the OSF grant database.
Former congressional staffers Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin, a married activist couple, co-founded Indivisible in 2016 to protest the election of President Donald Trump. Though headquartered in the nation’s capital, the nonprofit organization oversees localized chapters within its national network.
As part of the broader “No Kings” movement earlier this year, Indivisible had organized a cross-country display against Elon Musk through numerous anti-DOGE demonstrations targeting Tesla showrooms and GOP town halls.

Indivisible urged grassroots groups to “stop the Trump-Musk coup” and even offered to reimburse eligible expenses associated with the “Musk or Us” protests, such as venue fees, AV equipment, printing services concerning Indivisible-branded signage, food, drinks, and travel costs.
According to the since-scrubbed submission form for reimbursements, Indivisible affiliates could receive at least $200 per group. However, activists could contact Indivisible if the payment was “not sufficient to cover costs.”

Indivisible recommended that recipients deposit reimbursements in their Distributed Fundraising Account, a streamlined platform for affiliates to accept donations and spend funds through a debit card without registering as an independent organization or seeking 501(c)(4) status.
“Trust us, since we incorporated our own organization: incorporating takes a lot of time, reams of paperwork, and hundreds (or potentially thousands) of dollars in fees,” Indivisible’s frequently-asked-questions page advises. “On top of that, each type of non-profit has a variety of legal restrictions … By using the national Indivisible fundraising system, you won’t have to worry about managing your donations, and we’ll handle a lot of the paperwork on the front end.”
Indivisible also subsidizes “community-building events” for members to “recuperate” from protesting. Up to $1,500 is paid for group gatherings such as retreats, barbecues, ice cream socials, coffee chats, book clubs, game nights, hikes, and beach get-togethers.
