Take action

Don’t let it be lost on our watch

Freedoms last only if citizens do the ordinary work of self-government: reading, arguing, showing up, and accepting lawful outcomes while working to change them. The actions below are how this project asks people to defend liberty, equal law, and free speech for the next generation. Harassment, threats, vandalism, and any effort to intimidate people in their homes or houses of worship are wrong and illegal. Do not do them, and do not ask others to do them.

Liberty on the Line will not publish addresses or maps of individual mosques, name private individuals for targeting, or encourage protests designed to interfere with lawful worship. Debate ideas and policy in the open.

Attend public meetings

School boards, city councils, planning commissions, and state legislatures are where zoning, curriculum, and local ordinances are decided. Attend, read the agenda, and speak during public comment if you have something definite to say. The lawful standard is equal treatment and open debate — not disruption, intimidation, or campaigns against a particular house of worship.

Vote, and help others vote legally

Register, learn what is actually on the ballot, and vote in primaries as well as general elections. If you volunteer around elections, follow state law on canvassing, poll watching, and ballot handling. Civic duty is not the same thing as treating an opponent as an enemy.

Volunteer and build institutions

Churches, charities, civic associations, and educational groups are how a tradition is actually handed on. Volunteer, teach, mentor, and support institutions that form character and transmit the civic principles described on our values page. Cultural arguments are won in ordinary life as much as in elections.

Share sourced research

When you discuss these issues, link to primary sources rather than screenshots of screenshots. Correct errors, including errors on your own side. This site exists so the mosque counts, Pew estimates, and official security findings can be cited accurately — with their caveats included.
