Dozens of ‘No King’ protests to be held in Los Angeles County

Building on June’s “No King” protests, organizations across the United States, including in Southern California, rallied and marched again on Saturday to protest the Trump administration.

According to local event organizer Studio City Rising, on June 14, more than 50 million people in 50 states participated in one of the largest single-day protests against “President Trump’s authoritarianism.”

The latest “No Kings” rallies and marches will be held at dozens of locations across Los Angeles County.

“Our community is peacefully uniting to fight back against President Trump’s violent, authoritarian actions,” said Studio City Rising. “We stand with our neighbors and residents across the city to share a simple and unwavering message: We are not dictators or kings in America. Our diversity is our strength and empathy is our superpower.”

The national campaign is supported by groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union, American Federation of Teachers, Common Defense, 50501 Movement, Human Rights Campaign, Indivisible, League of Conservation Voters, MoveOn, National Nurses United, Public Citizen and Service Employees International Union, and others.
