Asheville & WNC Protests @ashevilleprotests.bsky.social · 30/05/2025

Asheville, here is your call to action for the next nationwide protests on June 14: No Clowns, No Kings! 1:30-3:30 in Pack Square Amphitheater, and this'll be a fun one - essentially an anti-Trump carnival! Family-friendly fun, a chance to raise money for a good cause, and let your voice be heard!

Go McDowell County!! Pride is a celebration, but it also started as, and remains, now more than ever, a protest!

Asheville & WNC Protests @ashevilleprotests.bsky.social · 30/05/2025

Not sure if anyone is organizing for this in WNC specifically, but it's a statewide call to action and Tillis DOES have a field office in Hendersonville - would be great to see folks show up there this afternoon!

Tuesday 6/3 is the last chance (for this budget year...but we all know when things get cut, they don't usually come back) to show up for your public schools and turn up the pressure on the commissioners to make sure our kids, families, and educators get what they need!

Tomorrow is Thursday, another chance to protest Chuck Edwards' business interests! Just look at how Elon Musk has changed his tune - this type of protest works! (1/3)

Weekly recurring pro-democracy protests around WNC! If you're involved in organizing any of these and want me to add/change anything here, please let me know, and of course, if there are more recurring protests in the area, I'd be happy to add them! Just figured it'd be easier to share all in one.

Our public schools need us! Whether or not you work in a public school, whether or not you have kids in a public school, don't you want to live in a community with fully-funded schools?

If you want to hit rich politicians where it really hurts - their wallets - don't just boycott Tesla and Amazon! The Asheville Tourists are owned by the DeWines - as in, MAGA-supporting Ohio governor Mike DeWine, and Chuck Edwards owns McDonald's franchises in Hendersonville, Brevard, and Canton.
