'No Kings' protest near me: when and where are events held in US cities? All you need to know

Millions of people from across the US are expected to march in the No Kings protests against US President Donald Trump’s administration on Saturday, October 18. The protesters aim to send a message that there is no place for authoritarianism in the United States, signaling their disapproval of the Trump administration’s recent policies. The No Kings rallies this Saturday are the second wave of a movement that took to the streets in June, which was “one of the biggest days of protest” in American history, as reported by The Guardian. The protests are planned in more than 2,700 locations in all 50 states, covering both small towns and large cities. Politicians such as Chuck Schumer, Chris Murphy and Bernie Sanders are expected to participate in the protests. Lisa Gilbert, co-president of Public Citizen and one of the protest organizers, said the key message for people to “carry” is that Trump wants them to be afraid, but protesters refuse to be bullied into “fear and silence.” She added that it was important for people to voice their opinions and not “be cowed by that fear”.
