This is the audio edition of Resist & Rising: Good News for October 3, 2026. Discover inspiring victories for democracy, immigrant rights, reproductive freedom, clean energy, workers, and communities across America.
Each week, Resist & Rising Together Weekly from People Power United shares proof that people power is alive and rising. Neighbors, workers, families, organizers, advocates, and everyday heroes are defending democracy, protecting one another, holding powerful interests accountable, and building a future rooted in dignity, freedom, and justice.
From courtroom victories and voting-rights wins to labor power, climate progress, reproductive freedom, immigrant justice, and courageous acts of solidarity, these stories remind us that America belongs to the people—not kings, billionaires, extremists, or authoritarians.
Resistance is not only about stopping harm. It is about choosing hope, building collective power, and moving forward together—one community, one action, and one victory at a time.
