‘No Kings’ protest begin nationwide with flagship rally in Minnesota

Byzuzi kuzi

Organizers say millions are expected to gather across the country and around the world in what they predict will be the “single largest non-violent day of action” in American history.

More than 3,200 marches are planned across all 50 states and several continents, as protesters voice outrage over Trump’s handling of the war with Iran, rising cost of gas and his administration’s mass deportation agenda.

The choice of St. Paul as the movement’s central protest site carries particular meaning. The Twin Cities remains a flashpoint after the January killings of two Americans  Alex Pretti and Renee Good  during a federal immigration enforcement operation that drew backlash and scrutiny over tactics used against protesters and immigrants.

“We’ve also seen our neighbors executed, American citizens executed, and our children carrying the burden of owning their own power and walking out of school in defiance,” Parker added. “The people of America are pissed. They are the ones demanding for no kings.”

Since the last No Kings [protests], we’re seeing higher gas prices and groceries, all while there’s an illegal war in Iran,” Sarah Parker, a national coordinator for the group 50501, told reporters Thursday on a national press call previewing Saturday’s events.
