OAKLAND: NO KINGS! MARCH & RALLY AGAINST AUTHORITARIANISM
We have the power and are claiming it together. No Thrones! No Crowns! No Kings!
Saturday, March 28 at 12 - 2:30 PM
MARCH & RALLY SCHEDULE - Always Check Here for the Most Up-to-Date Info:
As President Trump escalates his attempts to control us, it is on us, the people, to show that we will fight to protect one another and our country. If he believes we will roll over and allow him to take our freedoms, he is mistaken.
What began in 2025 as a single day of defiance has become a sustained national resistance to tyranny, spreading from small towns to city centers and across every community determined to defend democracy. Our peaceful movement is bigger than ever.
When our families are under attack and costs are pushing people to the brink, silence is not an option. We will defend ourselves and our communities against this administration's unjust and cruel acts of violence.
On March 28th, we rise up, take to the streets, and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings! We're not watching history happen -- we're making it.
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 events.
