Save the Date!
July 17th-19th is the national Good Trouble Lives On Weekend of Action. Across America, communities are coming together in the non-violent, persistent spirit of civil rights icon Congressman John Lewis. As we face ongoing challenges to voting accessibility and democratic transparency, we are carrying the torch forward right here in our own backyard by educating, organizing, and protecting the sacred right to vote.
JOIN US FRIDAY, JULY 17th at Kerouac Park from 6-7pm as we co-host a peaceful community stand-out with Solidarity Lowell. Bring your energy, your passion, and your signs celebrating voting rights, equal access, and strong democratic values. Let’s create a meaningful, steady presence that reminds our neighbors that our community cares and shows up!
NO KINGS
NO KINGS III
Thank you for joining us to protest the wannabe KING in the White House!
Hundreds of resisters from Lowell and surrounding towns gathered on Kerouac Park to be part of the largest protest in US history! They showed up to connect, organize, and protest in unity with millions of others across this great nation to show Trump that more people disapprove of him than approve. We will not let his regime bulldoze our democracy and destroy our country. Courage is contagious. As long as we continue to get out and voice our dissent, we will eventually turn the tide in the direction of democracy again.
Speaker list: Congresswoman Lori Trahan, Senator Vanna Howard, State Rep Tara Hong, Lt. Colonel Dan Ward (ret), Exec Director of MVP Julio Mejia, UML College Dem Dejah Gutierrez, LHS student, Jada Herring, emcee of the day Brad Buitenhuys. Music by No Planet B.
NO KINGS II
Thank you for joining us in saying NO KINGS in AMERICA!
To all of you who joined us at Boarding House Park, we thank you! At least 800 of you showed up in solidarity, to not only protest the wannabe dictator in the white house, but to show love and support for you neighbors, friends, family, and community.
No Kings Day was a rousing success because of your commitment to standing up against authoritarianism through nonviolent and lawful means. They tried to paint us as violent extremists, and we showed up centering joy, some as frogs, dinosaurs, bananas and many other inventive costumes, but all of us as grandparents, parents, children, neighbors, laborers, we all see a better path for this country.
NO KINGS I
Thank you for joining our mass protest against Trump!
Thank you for all who gathered in downtown Lowell to make it clear that we won’t be ruled by fear! You joined more than five million Americans, in over 2,100 towns and cities, to say WE DON’T DO KINGS IN AMERICA!
All told, this is shaping up to be on of the largest protest in American history! It’s at least 50% larger than the then-record-breaking April Hands Off! protest. And in addition to being notably larger, the crowds were notably diverse in age and race. It was a real demonstration of what pluralistic democracy looks like in this country.
