San Jose: #Tesla Takedown on 250th Anniversary of American Revolution

NO KINGS on 250th ANNIVERSARY OF AMERICAN REVOLUTION!

Saturday, April 19, 2025 at 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM

Info: https://actionnetwork.org/events/teslatakedown-san-jose-santana-row-2

Elon Musk is destroying our democracy, and he's using the fortune he built at Tesla to do it. We are taking nonviolent action at Tesla to stop Musk's illegal coup.

⚡Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines.

⚡ We're tanking Tesla's stock price to stop Musk.

⚡Stopping Musk will help save lives and protect our democracy.

The stakes couldn’t be higher. No one is coming to save us. Not politicians, not the media, not the courts.

Tesla Takedown is a peaceful protest movement. We oppose violence, vandalism and destruction of property.

This protest is a lawful exercise of our First Amendment right to peaceful assembly. We'll stay on sidewalks and won't obstruct traffic. We won't enter the Tesla Santana Row Showroom, nor stop people from entering or exiting it. No violence or threats against anyone, or destruction/vandalism of property, will be tolerated. Tesla dealerships are owned by the company, so we aren't impacting a small business, and this location is chosen because of its high public visibility.

#TeslaTakedown #BoycottTesla

Bring a sign, Bring a water bottle, Bring sunscreen/wear a hat

WHERE: we will meet on corner of Winchester Blvd & Stevens Creek Blvd, in the shade, in front of Best Buy

BRING: high-contrast signs with letters at least 8" high or bigger so that passing motorists traveling @40 mph can read them. - #TeslaTakedown #BoycottTesla

Suggested text for signs:
