Upcoming "No Kings" Protest March Needs to Be a National Strike! [View all]
That would be "Good Trouble." What's this next national "No Kings" protest march supposed to actually accomplish? Why are we not having a national strike instead? If and until this is done, marches will not achieve any lasting positive result. It's just a feel good gesture. Follow Europe's lead on having a successful national strike. Power concedes nothing without demands.

When: July 17, 2025
