No Kings Activists,
You rallied.
You chanted.
You made signs.
You sang songs.
You wore costumes.
You showed up!
Screen grab from video by Paul ShukovskyIn the end, nearly 7 million people took to the streets around the globe and proved that the resistance is not just strong, it is growing stronger every day.
It’s important to note that we did this day of national resistance with joy, we did it with our community, we did it lawfully, and we did it peacefully.
No Kings Day was a rousing success because of your commitment to standing up against authoritarianism through nonviolent and lawful means. They tried to paint us as violent extremists, and we showed up centering joy, some as clowns, penguins, frogs, and so many other inventive costumes, but all of us as grandparents, parents, children, neighbors, laborers -- people who see a better path for this country.
Thank you for being a part of this movement.
Remember: This is not the end.
Moderate rain, with a high of 51 and low of 40 degrees. Don't forget your umbrella! Patchy rain nearby during the morning, sunny in the afternoon, overcast in the evening, patchy rain nearby overnight.
The cost and disruption to our community for this project is unnecessary to say the least. Not enough community voice on the necessity of the round about was given and the community meeting wasn’t open to anyone opposing the project.
