No Kings is Back on October 18th!
In June, millions of Americans flocked to the streets to remind those in power that in America, we have NO KINGS. That protest was one of the most successful protests in American history!
Now, No Kings is back and it’s stronger than ever - with over 400 more protests planned than last time! This is proof that whenever Trump tries to chip away at our freedoms (like abducting immigrants, deploying troops in our streets, silencing voters, and defying the courts), more and more people stand up to his tyrannical rule.
The current government shutdown is another attempted authoritarian power grab by the President, which has prompted the American Federation of Government Employees to ask all of its members to join the protest.
So, please join us this Saturday as we support our federal workers and join millions of other patriots peacefully protesting in the streets. Protesters are being asked to wear yellow, a bright color that has historically been used against oppression.
On October 18th, we will demand that the power be put back where it belongs - in the people’s hands.
