What we’re about
We are an organization dedicated to promoting and advocating human, constitutional, and democratic rights of all individuals. We organize and participate in peaceful assembly, join rallies and demonstrations of like minded groups, and strive for peace and justice for all people in Central Florida and beyond.
Our group discusses local, state, national international affairs, as well as issues pertaining to social justice. In protest and messaging, we put our minds to work and, often, our bodies on the front lines.
CFPJ endorses nonviolent, visionary, and enlightened solutions to local, regional, state, national, and international issues. We represent a growing number of area residents who are urgently seeking a peaceful resolution to challenges and conflicts.
Join us in our mission to create a more just and peaceful world for all.

See all- "MAYDAY! Democracy Going Down" Rally – May 3Ocala Dowtown Square, Ocala, FL
We will join Ocala Blue Dots and members of regional groups Ocala-Marion County for Democracy and Marion for Peace to express alarm and anger at the brutal and unconstitutional actions of the Trump/Musk regime. Protesters will represent other counties in addition to Marion County, including Alachua, Volusia, Lake, Sumter, Hernando, and Citrus counties.
Please bring succinct message signs (supporting sticks recommended for best visibility), or we will have extras on hand. Suggested slogans below*
These protests are a response to what organizers describe as "the anti-democratic and illegal actions of the Trump administration." This marks the sixth local protest held in Ocala, which in April saw more than 500 souls show up and attract state-wide attention.
RESISTANCE IS WORKING–IMPEACH TRUMP 2026!
The protests follow a series of executive orders by ersatz President Trump, including actions managed by a deranged Elon Musk, which is eliminating the positive and inclusive role of the federal government. We participants fight the so-called Department of Government Efficiency — and seek the reinstatement of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives that have been rescinded through racist executive orders.
Please note: Ocala Blue Dots is partnering with Casa Marion to do a food drive for their organization during our next protest. Casa's Mission is challenging the societal acceptance of domestic violence, through advocacy, prevention, intervention, and support services. Please bring canned goods and non-perishable items to donate prior to the demonstration.
