Next "No Kings" Events Scheduled For June 14

 

Here we go:

As America approaches its 250th anniversary, we have a choice about what story we tell.

We can let strongman politics and corruption define the moment. Or we can make the story of America about people coming together — across race, background, identity, belief, and community — to defend our rights and build a future rooted in people power.

On June 14, we rise up, we sing out, and we keep organizing.

On June 14, No Kings and the Committee for the First Amendment are coming together for Rise Up, Sing Out — an uplifting national concert event celebrating the freedoms that belong to all of us: speech, assembly, protest, religion, press, and expression.

Across the country, communities will gather for local watch parties to sing along, make art, share food, connect with neighbors, and take meaningful action together.

Join a Rise Up, Sing Out event near you — or host one in your community...

This is good counter-programming on the Malignant Fascist's June 14 birthday and his low-class UFC cage match on the White House South Lawn.  Here is the initial list of events, which will be updated, so check back in case you don't see one in your area right now.

It should go without saying, but --

A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

Each "No Kings" event has been bigger than the last.  Let's make this one no exception.
