if you're in the us, go to this protest saturday april 5
If you're in the US, go attend one of these protests on Saturday April 5. They're happening across the country, in every U.S. state.
From the organizers:
Why come out on April 5 at all? Why is this important? Simple: Because it will be easier to come out on April 5 than it will on May 5 or June 5 or July 5. Because if Trump and Musk continue going down the path they’re on, we all know a crackdown on peaceful protest is coming. And when that crackdown comes, protest needs to be in the air. It needs to be the most normal thing in the world for millions of everyday people to spend their Saturday marching for democracy. When the crackdown comes, it needs to be alien, inexcusable, indefensible, and untenable for the authoritarian government to run roughshod over the people.
We protest on April 5 to tell them hands off today. And we protest on April 5 so it is safe to tell them hands off tomorrow.
So get outside. Make some friends. And make clear that Musk and Trump are up against forces they cannot intimidate into submission. We’re the majority, and we’re telling them to get their grubby little hands off of us, our friends, our families, our schools, our communities, our civil rights, and our democracy. See you out there on April 5.
