Rally and march, starting at Cal Anderson Park in Seattle. More info: https://seattleindivisible.com/events/2025/6/1/seattle-no-kings-june-14th/
In case you haven't to been to one of these protests before, this is a big, mainstream one. Think strollers and old ladies, although I'm sure there will be some signs with naughty words on them. So it's a good way to ease into protests and do something if you've finally gotten to the breaking point after seeing the shit going on in L.A.
EDIT: Seattle Times, which is known for undercounting protests, reports that this one was >70k people. That's over 9% of the population of Seattle! (Of course not everyone there was from Seattle.) SPD also reports the march itself was 1.5 miles long.
Let's see how many there will be and what the others excuses are.
• You know, some people have to work on Saturdays.
• I'd go, but isn't that part of the city really dangerous?
• I'm really not sure about who's organizing the protests.
• Saturday is my day to go bowling.
• Etc, etc, etc.
Be there. Everything is on the line. Be on the line.
I did go to the mayday protest on the 1st even though I was very hesetant. I did not do much but be part of a number, but I also did not regret it, and it made me more confident in protesting.
