I live on the border of Oakland and Piedmont/a rich community that is more centrist, so the politics of my neighbors are also not a given. My next door neighbor DID put flyers in mailboxes! He wrote "in light of our current political climate, let's get to know our neighbors" and invited everyone on a walk. We all knew what he meant. We just met on the corner, walked for a half hour together, and I met several people on my street that I didn't know. It was solidarity building with neighbors that we all knew was political without him needing to be overt, just in case.
