NO KINGS DAY SATURDAY, October 18 – All over the Bay Area

SEE YOU TOMORROW!
Sat Oct 18 in Benicia, Vallejo and more…
(Scroll down for locations & times…)

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.

>> IN BENICIA: October 18th NO KINGS DAY! 1-2pm at the Gazebo (map: First and Military Streets). Bring your signs, your neighbors, friends, and family, and your goodwill. We’ll “parade” this block for the hour on the sidewalk.

>> IN VALLEJO: Vallejo-Benicia INDIVISIBLE is holding a second NO KINGS Day of Action on Saturday, October 18, 10AM – 12PM, at Unity Plaza / JFK Library, 505 Santa Clara St. The event will include inspiring local speakers and live music as well as songs from our Resistance DJ. We will then march briefly through downtown Vallejo, ending around noon. The Vallejo event is listed with more detailed info on the Vallejo-Benicia Indivisible Facebook page (including a map).

About No Kings

In June, we did what many claimed was impossible: peacefully mobilized millions of people to take to the streets and declare with one voice: America has No Kings. And it mattered. The world saw the power of the people. President Trump’s birthday parade was drowned out by protests in every state and across the globe. His attempt to turn June 14 into a coronation collapsed, and the story became the strength of a movement rising against his authoritarian power grabs.

Now, President Trump has doubled down. His administration is sending masked agents into our streets, terrorizing our communities. They are targeting immigrant families, profiling, arresting and detaining people without warrants. Threatening to overtake elections. Gutting healthcare, environmental protections, and education when families need them most. Rigging maps to silence voters. Ignoring mass shootings at our schools and in our communities. Driving up the cost of living while handing out massive giveaways to billionaire allies, as families struggle.

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.

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

Because this country does not belong to kings, dictators, or tyrants. It belongs to We the People – the people who care, who show up, and the ones who fight for dignity, a life we can afford, and real opportunity. No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.

Vallejo-Benicia Indivisible is holding a second No Kings Day of Action on Saturday, Oct. 18 starting at 10 am at Unity Plaza, John F. Kennedy Library, 505 Santa Clara St. in Vallejo. The event will include inspiring local speakers and live music as well as songs from our Resistance DJ.

We will then march briefly through downtown Vallejo, ending around noon. As with all Indivisible events, this rally will be strictly nonviolent, joyful and uplifting.

The event will be one of more than 2,200 scheduled across the United States, protesting current presidential overreach that is causing harm by depriving ourselves and our neighbors of health care, food and the right to constitutional judicial recourse.

There will be barrels for our food drive for the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano Counties. Please bring packaged or canned foods, no glass or perishable items.

Scheduled speakers include Cassandra James, Solano County Supervisor; Allyssa Victory, ACLU Senior Staff Attorney; Will McGarvey, Executive Director, Solano Pride Center; Jaclyn Eyvonne, Vallejo Poet Laureate with original poem for this event; Mina Diaz, former Vallejo City Council member; Pastor Kim Kendrick, Community Congregational Church, UCC; and a representative from the North Bay Rapid Response Network, an organization protecting immigrants in our region.

Please dress for the weather, bring water, signs and sunscreen and your peaceful, joyful energy!
