I saw three pretty large protests today around where I lived. Guess who showed up and gave the biggest display of support? Boomers.

As a millennial, I apologize for talking so much shit. Yall have done this before. You stood up in the 60s and 70s and here you are again, when we need it. Mad respect and thank you.

This photo was taken right before the official start, but it swelled to at least 500 people by 3pm! We are near Philly, but I am disabled so this was a much safer protest for me to attend! Best wishes out there today!

Wanted to let you guys know that we see you! Today one of Germany biggest and oldest news broadcasters (Tagesschau) had a whole segment about the protests today. Prime time slot as well. Daily news show. Thank you for showing up! And may the protest grow more and more so change will inevitably come. You the people have the power. You’ve done it before, you can do it again! History has enough examples that prove this! You’ve got this. And please keep showing up! Do not give up, change doesn’t happen over night.

Godspeed, an Ally from Germany, whose grandparents didn’t fight enough to stop Fascism. And we all know of the consequences.

Great times were had! ✊

We had a great turnout today at the Courthouse in Boonville, IN despite the rain! The final count was 37 people 🎉 which is a HUGE deal for our area especially with it being such a MAGA area!

We got a ton of support from the community with lots of honking & waving, one person saw the protest and decided to join in, and several pulled over into parking spots to ask questions about the protest and get more information about how to get involved!!

Only had a couple negative comments (why is get a job always the go to 🤦‍♀️ its a Saturday!) so overall a huge success!!

This sums it up well. Not my sign, but one of my favorites.
