There will be a firepit and patio heaters if it gets chilly. Many of the candidates that we’re supporting will bring their campaign materials for us to prep and take home for distribution.

In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.

Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.

The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.

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.

“I took action because I know what’s coming and tonight’s training provided me with a solid understanding of mobilizing people in my community to take action. Brilliant strategy and I’m all in!” 

– SURJ Strengthening Our Solidarity member

MAGA’s escalating attacks on immigrants are brutal– tearing apart families and forcing people to live in fear. As they have for decades, immigrant communities are rising up and showing us all what bravery in the face of repression looks like. 

We’re proud that SURJ and our partners at Solidarity Organizing Initiative (SOI) have trained over 4,000 SURJ members in 44 states and 50 local groups to show up alongside them and fight back. Political violence and repression are designed to keep us quiet, but if white people stay silent, this will just become the new reality. 

Now is your chance to join us. Will you join the 2-part Solidarity Mobilizations training program on Wednesday, October 15th & October 22nd alongside thousands of other SURJ members ready to stand with our immigrant neighbors?

>> Register now

Solidarity Mobilizations is a 2-part training program for all of us who want to stand up in solidarity, especially those of us who are white who are ready to organize, respond, and show up with commitment and care. We’ll break down the political moment we’re in, the authoritarian playbook driving these attacks, and the role those of us who are white and/or citizens can play in pushing back effectively and strategically.

Can’t make the training, but want to support? Can you make a donation that will be split between SURJ and SOI today to make sure we have the resources to keep fighting for the world we know is possible?

In solidarity,

SURJ
