Organized nationwide by 50501 and Move On.   Louisville held its rally at Metro Hall (previous location) and Jefferson Square with speakers  present.

This rally was a pro-democracy rally which opposes the current authoritative government.  This is a purist form of “We the  People” who constitutionally enjoy the right to protest and express our dissent peacefully (First Amendment)

Carpooling was available.

Pro Democracy signage expressed our peaceful resistance to any other form of governance!

 

 

 

With 2,000 events nationwide, in every state, was the single largest protest of this Administration.

 

 

A single mobilization won’t turn this ship around. But it can do a few very important things:

Change the narrative. A massive show of popular opposition everywhere in the country can disrupt Trump’s effort to project strength. It shows that resistance is big, powerful, growing, and everywhere.

Bring in new people. A mobilization of this scale and scope reaches people who aren’t yet engaged, and — if done right — helps to draw them into a cycle of action and relationships on the ground.

Foster community. When you show up, you realize that not only are you not alone — you’re actually part of something enormous. And that helps to build the shared sense of identity we’ll need for the path ahead.

Spread courage. After Hands Off!, we heard from people in positions of power within institutions — law firms, universities (one big university, in fact), and elsewhere — who told us they were emboldened by the protests to push back on pressure from the Trump regime. As we often say, courage is contagious.
