In June, we mobilized millions of people to take to the streets and declare with one voice: America has no kings. Trump’s birthday parade was drowned out by protests in all 50 states and throughout the world. His attempt to turn June 14 into a coronation backfired, and the story of the day was about the strength of a movement rising against his authoritarian power grabs.

The millions of people who turned out in June helped create one of the largest single days of protest in US history, and their courage and commitment set an example for others to follow. Since then, we’ve seen more and more political leaders and institutions choosing to resist the regime rather than play dead.

But we knew June 14 was just the start. Trump is doubling down on his authoritarian tactics. He is disappearing immigrants to sprawling concentration camps, sending troops into our cities, threatening to interfere in elections, rigging maps to steal power from the voters, and orchestrating a massive giveaway to his billionaire allies as families struggle.

Trump is ramping up his attacks on our rights and democracy, but we’re not backing down. On October 18, we’re taking to the streets in more cities and in larger numbers to remind Trump, his cronies, and those on the sidelines looking for hope: America has no kings.

On October 18 we say No Kings.

Right now, we’re in round the clock coordination with our No Kings partners to make the next No Kings one of the largest days of protest in US history. Next week, we’ll have events up on the map and the ability to register protests in your area. Until then, here’s what you can do to help make No Kings as big and powerful as possible:

Click here to let us know you’re ready to show up on October 18. Share the date with your friends and neighbors and sign up to be the first to know when our map of rallies and protests goes live.

Pitch in to help make No Kings the biggest day of protest in US history. Organizing a national day of action with millions of people takes time and resources. Between the recruitment tools, map of events, supplies and resources for local protests and anchor events, we’re estimating the costs will be over one million dollars. If you’re able to, please pitch in to support No Kings.

Since June, this movement has only continued to grow. New Indivisible groups are forming every week, hundreds of thousands have joined our trainings on strategic non-cooperation, and we’ve launched new campaigns to resist Trump’s attacks on our elections, universities, and immigrant communities.

But with Trump escalating his authoritarian tactics, it’s critical that we respond to his power grabs loudly and publicly. We need to show up with millions of people -- in demonstrations even larger than June’s -- to show that the resistance is still here and growing. And every time Trump levies another attack on our rights and democracy, our movement only grows stronger in response.

Just picking a day on the calendar won’t be enough to generate the kind of response we need in this moment. A national day of protest takes time and immense resources to prepare -- tech and online infrastructure, marketing materials, security investments, staging/sounds, and so much more.

So once you sign up to tell us you’re in, please consider chipping in to help make No Kings a historic day of protest. Together, we can move complacent politicians into action, bring new allies into the movement to save our democracy, and show Trump and his cronies that this movement is growing and getting stronger every day.
