Indivisibles -- Today is the day. No Kings Day. Possibly the largest
day of peaceful protest we’ve ever seen in our lifetimes.
We hope to see you and your community in the streets today as we defend
our democracy and remind Trump that we don’t do kings here. Keep reading
for what you need to know for a peaceful, powerful day of defiance.

What to wear and bring
Let us start by saying this: Whatever you’re wearing, whoever you’re with,
or whatever your physical capabilities are, you are welcome at No Kings!
Even if you show up empty-handed in your PJs or work clothes, what matters
most is that you’re there.
That said, here are some tips to make your experience even more powerful
and enjoyable if you choose to follow them:
* [ [link removed] ]Wear yellow. We’re encouraging folks to wear yellow, if they can,
as a bright, unmistakable reminder that millions of us stand together
against tyranny. Wearing yellow helps us stand out. Wearing yellow
brings us together even more.
* Bring your signs and flags. Whether you want to wave one of [ [link removed] ]No
Kings’ printable, pre-made protest signs, a clever homemade one of
your own, or a US flag to show that protest is patriotic, you’re
encouraged to do so!
* Share the joy with #NoKings on social. We want No Kings to absolutely
take over social media, so if you’re comfortable doing so, post photos
from your event with the hashtag #NoKings. Please be mindful of others
and ask before posting close-up photos showing other protestors’
faces.
* Dress comfortably for the weather. Many of you will be spending a long
time on your feet and outdoors! Don’t forget to wear comfy, sturdy
shoes and bring sunscreen, a poncho, umbrella, extra jacket, etc… if
needed.
* Have a plan to arrive and depart. As you arrive at the event, take
care to note where you’re parked, where event organizers/volunteers
are stationed, and the safest routes for entry or exit. If you’re
traveling in a group, choose a time and place to meet up in case you
are separated.

Our commitment to nonviolence
A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent
action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential
confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully
at these events.
Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be
brought to No Kings events.
Please refer to the [ [link removed] ]No Kings Know Your Rights Guide,
our [ [link removed] ]de-escalation pocket guide, and the additional resources on
[ [link removed] ]NoKings.org for important information to maintain a safe, joyful
protest.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today is a day for courage, for joy, and for patriotism. We gather as a
reminder to the Trump regime, to all those in power, and to ourselves: the
will of the people can and will prevail.
We are Americans. We are free. And we do not do kings here.
See you soon,
Indivisible Team ❌👑
P.S. [ [link removed] ]Join us on Tuesday at 8pm ET / 5pm PT for the No Kings
post-protest call! We’ll join friends and partners nationwide to celebrate
our impact and discuss what comes next for our pro-democracy movement.
