Indivisibles,
We’re ten days away from No Kings Day, and as of today, we have 2,456 protests registered in all fifty states and across the world. That’s hundreds more than the total from our massive day of action back in June, and the momentum isn’t slowing down -- we’re still adding new events to our map every single day.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen the threats from the Trump regime escalate -- undermining our First Amendment rights, threatening to illegally withhold pay from federal workers, sending invasion forces into American cities. But the backlash is growing too, and next week millions of us will take to the streets, peacefully and defiantly, to remind Trump that this country has no kings.
There’s still a ton of work to do before October 18, and these final ten days will be critical for making No Kings a huge success. The biggest surge in RSVPs for our June demonstration didn’t happen until the final week. So, while we’re ahead of pace compared to our last day of action, we can’t slow down now.
With our No Kings partners, we’re continuing to expand our promotion and recruitment work, but we need your help to get as many folks as possible taking to the streets next week. Here’s what you can do:
1️⃣ Find an event near you, and sign up to join. Already registered? Invite three friends to join you!
2️⃣ Pitch in, if you can, to help make this the biggest day of protest in US history. The surge in events is remarkable -- and it means we need to match that enthusiasm with the resources and support that our groups, hosts, and volunteers need. If you can spare a donation, please chip in today.
Your donations will help fund trainings for hosts, materials (signs, flags, backdrops, Know Your Rights cards), event support, safety preparations, and promotion and recruitment tactics like digital ads and peer-to-peer texting. This week alone, we’ll be sending out nearly one million texts to boost recruitment and help bring new people into this movement.
None of this work is possible without the support of our grassroots donors, so if you’re able to pitch in, please click here to support No Kings Day.
However you choose to support No Kings -- whether you’re attending, hosting, promoting events, donating, or all of the above -- we’re incredibly grateful to have you in this movement. Together we can make October 18 the biggest day of nonviolent protest in US history.
See you out on the streets, Indivisible Team
