The scale of last weekend’s “No Kings” protests is now becoming clearer, with one estimate suggesting that Saturday was among the biggest ever single-day protests in US history.

Were the No Kings protests the largest single-day demonstration in American history?

Trump and his billionaire profiteers are trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages, on benefits, on dignity itself. This May Day we are fighting back. We are demanding a country that puts our families over their fortunes—public schools over private profits, healthcare over hedge funds, prosperity over free market politics.

Since returning to the Oval Office, President Trump has moved forcefully to advance his vision of history. For many in the historical profession, Trump’s moves are nothing short of an assault on history, an effort to sideline critical inquiry and purge the past of facts.

In-person protests—with their noise, limited seating, and unmasked crowds—can be inaccessible to disabled people. While some may grimace at using Zoom for social activities, for many chronically ill and disabled people, having the platform continue to be available is a relief.
