About

Savannah Indivisible, formerly Coastal Georgia for Democracy, formed in February 2025 as a means of organizing against Trump 2.0’s nationalist, billionaire-first agenda.

We are a progressive organization based in Savannah, Georgia. Our activities fall into three primary categories:

1. Resist: We rally, march, protest, and mobilize against corrupt authoritarian overreach. In 2026, this centers on the fascist Trump regime and its ultra-destructive policies. We resist the erosion of voting rights; the deconstruction of civil liberties like free speech, due process and birthright citizenship; the racist agenda to deport lawful and law-abiding immigrants; attacks on women’s rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, and other vulnerable communities; and the decimation of living wages, affordable housing, and accessible healthcare.
2. Reclaim: We host candidate forums, run voter education campaigns, and operate voter engagement to inspire our community to vote for progressive candidates. We want to reclaim the very idea of Freedom — true freedom — from the far right’s corrupted vision of fascist impunity. As Frank Wilhoit wrote in 2018, “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.” We reject that. We fight to reclaim freedom as an equal standard for all people.
3. Renew: We work to renew the community of our city, county, and state through mutual aid, standing up for vulnerable constituencies, and advocating for bold civic policies. We partner with a network of shelters, food pantries, environmental groups, and legal aid providers to help stitch together a social net for anyone in need, no questions asked. We work to rebuild broken political systems and push for investments in social programs, education, and infrastructure.

We are not Republicans, Democrats, or Socialists. We remain independent from political affiliation in order to advocate policy ideas and candidates that genuinely help people versus advance any single party’s arbitrary platform.

We believe that Georgia can be a state of abundance from which all of its residents share. We work toward a future of policy over partisanship, communal respect over culture wars, universal prosperity over income inequality. For Savannah, for Chatham and surrounding counties, for GA Congressional District 1, and all of Georgia.

Values

Inclusivity — We are committed at every level to value and promote the diversity of community through dialogue, education, and ongoing equity.

Education — Genuinely learning about and engaging with others, and passing along resources that aid and protect the vulnerable, while disarming the ignorant, empower us all and deeply strengthen the community.

Non-violence — Non-violence is at the heart of democratic ideals. Violence is at the heart of the fascist approach to government. As an advocacy group, we seek to expand and defend freedom in civil spaces; violence is only a last resort of self-defense and safety in the breakdown of civil society. Read our commitment to non-violence.

Common Questions

Are you partisan or nonpartisan?

Savannah Indivisible was formed specifically outside the Republican / Democrat model in order to preserve independence from party dogma and histrionics.

We promote progressive values and policies. Sometimes, but definitely not always, that means promoting Democratic candidates.

We believe in rationality, discourse, and nonpartisan collaboration. Those ingredients fuel strong, responsible government that serves the people. The government under Trump 2.0 — irrational, belligerent, myopic — could not be further from that baseline. We do not work with any candidate or group that aligns with MAGA.

Who joins Savannah Indivisible?

Honestly: anyone. Our group includes people from all walks of life: homemakers, corporate business, legal, healthcare, military. Students, professionals, retirees. Republicans shocked at what their party has devolved into. Democrats shocked at their party’s ineffectual response. Socialists shocked no one’s taking them more seriously. The unifying denominator is a simple idea: the Trump regime is destroying America but America is worth fighting for.

Why did you change your name from “Coastal Georgia for Democracy” to “Savannah Indivisible”?

When the group started, we wanted a name that represented both our geographic focus and also our political inclination. After several iterations, we landed on Coastal Georgia for Democracy. From day one, we’ve co-branded as Savannah Indivisible to ensure people understood that our organizational backbone was independent from the Republican / Democrat duopoly.

Over time, people just called us “Savannah Indivisible”. It’s easier to remember, easier to say, and easier to understand its position within the political landscape. It just made sense to brand ourselves with the snappier, clearer name.

In January 2026, we officially changed our name to Savannah Indivisible.

Why bother?

As our co-founder Suzanne Potts has said, doing nothing is the easiest way to feel helpless. We are not helpless. We, the people, are anything but helpless. So we choose action.
