March Against Tyranny (NJ50501)

From the Organizers of the New Jersey 50501 Trenton Protests

For our last days of protest, we were honored to have organized for hundreds of New Jersey residents who wished to defend our democracy. On both March 1st and March 4th, we showed unequivocally that America has no room for dictators, despots or kings. Once again, we could not be prouder of our state and the people from it. We are deeply grateful to each and every person that was in attendance.

The Trump administration must be reminded yet again that we the people will not stand for a leader who behaves as a dictator, nor will we stand for such a thing from our allies. President Trump has shamed all Americans by unabashedly allying himself with Vladimir Putin and abandoning the Ukrainians who fight for the sovereignty of their nation. Moreover, he has actively distanced our country from Canada, one of our oldest strategic partners, in order to escalate a trade war that will only serve to pinch the pockets of already struggling Americans.

At 12 PM on Saturday, March 15th, the New Jersey branch of 50501 will protest at the the New Jersey Statehouse. We will express our disgust for the lies, fear-mongering and disinformation that this administration has spread. We will protest the disrespect of long-standing allies, our own constitution and basic human rights. We will cry out in dissent as Americans who would have their voices heard.
