What's next? Here's some information from Erica Chenoweth's research. "...contemporary movements tend to over-rely on mass demonstrations while neglecting other techniques—such as general strikes and mass civil disobedience—that can more forcefully disrupt a regime’s stability."

We have some pretty incredible coalition members who are working tirelessly to make a general strike a reality. Here are some of them at the recent #NoKings rally. Vermont showing out with some incredible signs! @generalstrikevt.bsky.social

A pile of signs with white backgrounds and wooden stakes for holding in the trunk of a car. One reads billionaires want us to fight about it generalstrikevt.com. Others read they are taking it away so they can sell it back to us don't privatize this! and Share freedom! generalstrikevt.com.

Both things are true: the protests are impactful AND the 3.5% guiding principle emphasizes more sustained action. These awareness raising events are good for morale AND we need the once a month numbers to show out more often than that. We need protests AND we need a general strike.

Yep that’s the story today. And the next story is how we funnel these millions of new people into sustained local organizing in service of democracy.

What’s next after over five million people here in the US, along with allies in cities from London to Tokyo, stood united yesterday in the belief that democracy is worth fighting for? We’re glad you asked. 👇

No Kings Day was one of the largest days of protest in US history. From deep red small towns to our largest cities, millions of people turned out to make it clear that the American people will not bow to fascism. #NoKings

Trump is testing the boundaries of his power right now. His military escalation in Los Angeles is a rehearsal for what MAGA wants to do across the nation. That’s why we need millions of Americans to join us tomorrow for peaceful protests on #NoKings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

No Kings

On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. ...
