Flagstaff to participate in ‘No Kings Mass Protest’ on June 14

In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies. On Saturday, June 14, we’re taking to the streets nationwide. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind.

Arizona Indivisible Groups Join May Day Strong Rallies Across the State and Country to Demand a Fairer Future for Working Families

By Indivisible Northern AZ — FLAGSTAFF — Indivisible groups across Arizona stood shoulder to shoulder with working families on May Day in a statewide show of strength as part of the May Day Strong mobilization. From Flagstaff to Phoenix and beyond, community members gathered to declare that it’s time to put people over profits and take back power from the billionaires and politicians who are dismantling our livelihoods. The Flagstaff protest drew over 1200 people. A bigger-than-life sized puppet paraded up and down the sidewalk and was a highlight of the day.  Protest signs reflected a wide variety of concerns, from the destruction of jobs, gutting of public resources, and higher cost of living— all for the benefit of billionaires.  Protesters were joined by NAU students who gave speeches about the importance of supporting workers’ rights, affordable education, and a stronger social safety net. Flagstaff was just one of over 800 cities across the country to join the mass mobilization that was attended by hundreds of thousands of protestors.
